Cheeta Raibama Chunder Sen	A
The wisest and the best of men	A
Betook him to the place where sat	B
With folded feet upon a mat	B
Of precious stones beneath a palm	C
In sweet and everlasting calm	C
That ancient and immortal gent	D
The God of Rational Content	D
As tranquil and unmoved as Fate	E
The deity reposed in state	E
With palm to palm and sole to sole	F
And beaded breast and beetling jowl	G
And belly spread upon his thighs	H
And costly diamonds for eyes	H
As Chunder Sen approached and knelt	I
To show the reverence he felt	I
Then beat his head upon the sod	J
To prove his fealty to the god	J
And then by gestures signified	K
The other sentiments inside	K
The god's right eye as Chunder Sen	A
The wisest and the best of men	A
Half fancied grew by just a thought	L
More narrow than it truly ought	L
Yet still that prince of devotees	M
Persistent upon bended knees	M
And elbows bored into the earth	N
Declared the god's exceeding worth	N
And begged his favor Then at last	O
Within that cavernous and vast	O
Thoracic space was heard a sound	P
Like that of water underground	P
A gurgling note that found a vent	D
At mouth of that Immortal Gent	D
In such a chuckle as no ear	Q
Had e'er been privileged to hear	Q
	-
Cheeta Raibama Chunder Sen	A
The wisest greatest best of men	A
Heard with a natural surprise	H
That mighty midriff improvise	H
And greater yet the marvel was	R
When from between those massive jaws	S
Fell words to make the views more plain	T
The god was pleased to entertain	T
'Cheeta Raibama Chunder Sen '	-
So ran the rede in speech of men	A
'Foremost of mortals in assent	D
To creed of Rational Content	D
Why come you here to impetrate	D
A blessing on your scurvy pate	D
Can you not rationally be	U
Content without disturbing me	U
Can you not take a hint a wink	V
Of what of all this rot I think	V
Is laughter lost upon you quite	D
To check you in your pious rite	D
What know you not we gods protest	D
That all religion is a jest	D
You take me seriously you	W
About me make a great ado	W
When I but wish to be alone	X
With attitudes supine and prone	X
With genuflexions and with prayers	Y
And putting on of solemn airs	Y
To draw my mind from the survey	Z
Of Rational Content away	Z
Learn once for all if learn you can	A2
This truth significant to man	A2
A pious person is by odds	B2
The one most hateful to the gods '	-
Then stretching forth his great right hand	D
Which shadowed all that sunny land	D
That deity bestowed a touch	C2
Which Chunder Sen not overmuch	C2
Enjoyed a touch divine that made	D
The sufferer hear stars They played	D
And sang as on Creation's morn	D2
When spheric harmony was born	D2
	-
Cheeta Raibama Chunder Sen	A
The most astonished man of men	A
Fell straight asleep and when he woke	E2
The deity nor moved nor spoke	E2
But sat beneath that ancient palm	C
In sweet and everlasting calm	C
