Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEEEFGFHHIIEEJJ| When as a boy I went | A |
| To study in the Muses' school | B |
| One of them came to me and took | C |
| Me by the hand and all that day | D |
| She through the work shop led me graciously | E |
| The mysteries of the craft to see | E |
| She guided me | E |
| Through every part | F |
| And showed me all | G |
| The instruments of art | F |
| And did their uses all rehearse | H |
| In works alike of prose and verse | H |
| I looked and paused awhile | I |
| Then asked O Muse where is the file | I |
| The file is out of order friend and we | E |
| Now do without it answered she | E |
| But to repair it then have you no care | J |
| We should indeed but have no time to spare | J |
