A
-
Arcturus is his other nameB
I'd rather call him StarC
It's very mean of ScienceD
To go and interfereE
-
I slew a worm the other dayF
A Savant passing byG
Murmured Resurgam CentipedeH
Oh Lord how frail are weI
-
I pull a flower from the woodsJ
A monster with a glassK
Computes the stamens in a breathL
And has her in a classK
-
Whereas I took the ButterflyG
Aforetime in my hatM
He sits erect in CabinetsN
The Clover bells forgotO
-
What once was HeavenP
Is Zenith nowQ
Where I proposed to goR
When Time's brief masquerade was doneP
Is mapped and charted tooS
-
What if the poles should frisk aboutT
And stand upon their headsU
I hope I'm ready for the worstV
Whatever prank betidesU
-
Perhaps the Kingdom of Heaven's changedW
I hope the Children there Won't be new fashioned when I comeX
And laugh at me and stareY
-
I hope the Father in the skiesU
Will lift his little girlZ
Old fashioned naught everythingA2
Over the stile of PearlZ
