Le temps le mieux employe est celui qu' on perd	A
Claude Tillier	B
	-
I'd read three hours Both notes and text	A
Were fast a mist becoming	C
In bounced a vagrant bee perplexed	A
And filled the room with humming	C
	-
Then out The casement's leafage sways	D
And parted light discloses	E
Miss Di with hat and book a maze	D
Of muslin mixed with roses	E
	-
You're reading Greek I am and you	F
O mine's a mere romancer	B
So Plato is Then read him do	F
And I'll read mine in answer	B
	-
I read My Plato Plato too	F
That wisdom thus should harden	G
Declares 'blue eyes look doubly blue	F
Beneath a Dolly Varden '	-
	-
She smiled My book in turn avers	H
No author's name is stated	A
That sometimes those Philosophers	H
Are sadly mis translated	A
	-
But hear the next's in stronger style	I
The Cynic School asserted	A
That two red lips which part and smile	I
May not be controverted	A
	-
She smiled once more My book I find	A
Observes some modern doctors	H
Would make the Cynics out a kind	A
Of album verse concoctors	H
	-
Then I Why not 'Ephesian law	J
No less than time's tradition	G
Enjoined fair speech on all who saw	J
Diana's apparition '	-
	-
She blushed this time If Plato's page	K
No wiser precept teaches	H
Then I'd renounce that doubtful sage	K
And walk to Burnham beeches	H
	-
Agreed I said For Socrates	H
I find he too is talking	C
Thinks Learning can't remain at ease	H
While Beauty goes a walking	C
	-
She read no more I leapt the sill	L
The sequel's scarce essential	M
Nay more than this I hold it still	L
Profoundly confidential	M
