PLACE A small alcove with dark curtains	B
The class consists of one member	C
SUBJECT Thomson s Mirror Galvanometer	C
	-
	-
The lamp light falls on blackened walls	D
And streams through narrow perforations	B
The long beam trails o er pasteboard scales	E
With slow decaying oscillations	B
Flow current flow set the quick light spot flying	F
Flow current answer light spot flashing quivering dying	F
	-
O look how queer how thin and clear	C
And thinner clearer sharper growing	F
The gliding fire with central wire	C
The fine degrees distinctly showing	F
Swing magnet swing advancing and receding	F
Swing magnet Answer dearest What's your final reading	F
	-
O love you fail to read the scale	G
Correct to tenths of a division	H
To mirror heaven those eyes were given	H
And not for methods of precision	H
Break contact break set the free light spot flying	F
Break contact rest thee magnet swinging creeping dying	F

Professor Chrschtschonovitsch Ph D quot On the C G S system of Units quot	I
Remarks submitted to the Lecturer by a student	I
	-
	-
Prim Doctor of Philosophy	J
Front academic Heidelberg	K
Your sum of vital energy	J
Is not the millionth of an erg	K
Your liveliest motion might be reckoned	I
At one tenth metre in a second	I
quot The air quot you said in language fine	L
Which scientific thought expresses	M
quot The air which with a megadyne	L
On each square centimetre presses	M
The air and I may add the ocean	L
Are nought but molecules in motion quot	I
	-
Atoms you told me were discrete	I
Than you they could not be discreter	C
Who know how many Millions meet	I
Within a cubic millimetre	C
They clash together as they fly	A
But you you cannot tell me why	A
	-
And when in tuning my guitar	C
The interval would not come right	I
quot This string quot you said quot is strained too far	C
Tis forty dynes at least too tight quot	I
And then you told me as I sang	K
What overtones were in my clang	K
	-
You gabbled on but every phrase	N
Was stiff with scientific shoddy	I
The only song you deigned to praise	N
Was quot Gin a body meet a body quot	I
quot And even there quot you said quot collision	L
Was not described with due precision quot	I
	-
quot In the invariable plane quot	I
You told me quot lay the impulsive couple quot	I
You seized my hand you gave me pain	L
By torsion of a wrist so supple	O
You told me what that wrench would do	I
quot Twould set me twisting round a screw quot	I
	-
Were every hair of every tress	P
Which you no doubt imagine mine	L
Drawn towards you with its breaking stress	P
A stress say of a megadyne	L
That tension I would sooner suffer	C
Than meet again with such a duffer	C
