Plain Language from truthful James	A
	-
	-
Do I sleep Do I dream	B
Am I hoaxed by a scout	C
Are things what they seem	B
Or is Sophists about	C
Is our to ti en einai a failure or is Robert Browning played out	C
	-
Which expressions like these	D
May be fairly applied	E
By a party who sees	D
A Society skied	F
Upon tea that the Warden of Keble had biled with legitimate pride	E
	-
'Twas November the third	G
And I says to Bill Nye	H
'Which it's true what I've heard	G
If you're so to speak fly	H
There's a chance of some tea and cheap culture the sort recommended as High '	-
	-
Which I mentioned its name	I
And he ups and remarks	J
'If dress coats is the game	I
And pow wow in the Parks	J
Then I 'm nuts on Sordello and Hohenstiel Schwangau and similar Snarks '	-
	-
Now the pride of Bill Nye	H
Cannot well be express'd	K
For he wore a white tie	H
And a cut away vest	K
Says I 'Solomon's lilies ain't in it and they was reputed well dress'd '	-
	-
But not far did we wend	L
When we saw Pippa pass	M
On the arm of a friend	L
Doctor Furnivall 'twas	N
And he wore in his hat two half tickets for London return second class	M
	-
'Well ' I thought 'this is odd '	-
But we came pretty quick	O
To a sort of a quad	P
That was all of red brick	O
And I says to the porter 'R Browning free passes and kindly look slick '	-
	-
But says he dripping tears	Q
In his check handkerchief	R
'That symposium's career's	Q
Been regrettably brief	S
For it went all its pile upon crumpets and busted on gunpowder leaf '	-
	-
Then we tucked up the sleeves	Q
Of our shirts that were biled	P
Which the reader perceives	Q
That our feelings were riled	P
And we went for that man till his mother had doubted the traits of her child	P
	-
Which emotions like these	Q
Must be freely indulged	P
By a party who sees	Q
A Society bulged	P
On a reef the existence of which its prospectus had never divulged	P
	-
But I ask Do I dream	B
Has it gone up the spout	P
Are things what they seem	B
Or is Sophists about	P
Is our to ti en einai a failure or is Robert Browning played out	P
