It is told in Buddhi theosophic Schools	A
There are rules	A
By observing which when mundane matter irks	B
Or the world has gone amiss you	C
Can incontinently issue	C
From the circumscribing tissue	C
Of your Works	B
	-
That the body and the gentleman inside	D
Can divide	D
And the latter if acquainted with the plan	E
Can alleviate the tension	F
By remaining 'in suspension'	F
As a kind of fourth dimension	F
Bogie man	F
	-
And to such as mourn an Indian Solar Crime	G
At its prime	G
'Twere a stratagem so luminously fit	H
That tho' doctrinaires deny it	H
And Academicians guy it	H
I for one would like to try it	H
For a bit	H
	-
Just to leave one's earthly tenement asleep	I
In a heap	I
And detachedly to watch it as it lies	J
With an epidermis pickled	K
Where the prickly heat has prickled	K
And a sense of being tickled	K
By the flies	J
	-
And to sit and loaf and idle till the day	K
Dies away	K
In a duplicate ethereally cool	L
Or around the place to potter	M
Tho' the flesh could hardly totter	M
As contented as an otter	M
In a pool	L
	-
'Let the pestilent mosquito do his worst	K
Till he burst	K
Let him bore and burrow morning noon and night	K
If he finds the diet sweet oh	N
Who am I to place a veto	N
On the pestilent mosquito	N
Let him bite '	-
	-
O my cumbersome misfit of bone and skin	F
Could I win	F
To the wisdom that would render me exempt	K
From the grosser bonds that tether	M
You and Astral Me together	M
I should simply treat the weather	M
With contempt	K
	-
I should contemplate its horrors with entire	M
Lack of ire	O
And pursuant to my comfortable aim	P
With a snap at every shackle	Q
I should quit my tabernacle	Q
And serenely sit and cackle	Q
At the game	P
	-
But alas the 'mystic glory swims away '	-
And the clay	K
Is as vulgarly persistent as of yore	R
And the cuticle is pickled	K
Where the prickly heat has prickled	K
And the nose and ears are tickled	K
As before	R
	-
And until the Buddhi theosophic Schools	A
Print the rules	A
That will bring our tale of sorrows to a close	S
Body mine though others chide thee	T
And consistently deride thee	T
I shall have to stay inside thee	T
I suppose	U
