| will I have to seek other | A2 |
| promulgators | C |
| that fellow in the Russian | R |

| or that beast in the East | B2 |
| with all that hair | O |
| in his ears with those wet and | C2 |
| greasy lips | C |
| - | |

| machinery | W |
| of his former trade to a | U |
| cousin a | U |
| daughter or | D2 |
| some Poundian from Big | E2 |
| Sur | A2 |
| - | |

| to the | U |
| Shipping Clerk | G2 |
| who will rise like | H2 |
| Lazarus | C |
| fingering new found | I2 |
| importance | C |

| cultivate and aerate | H |
| between | S2 |
| bushes water only in the | U |
| early morning spread | H |
| shredding to discourage | T2 |
| weed growth | U2 |
| and | H |
| as I do in my writing | G2 |
| use plenty of | G |
| manure | V2 |
