In the Neolithic Age savage warfare did I wage	A
For food and fame and woolly horses' pelt	B
I was singer to my clan in that dim red Dawn of Man	C
And I sang of all we fought and feared and felt	B
	-
Yea I sang as now I sing when the Prehistoric spring	D
Made the piled Biscayan ice pack split and shove	E
And the troll and gnome and dwerg and the Gods of Cliff and Berg	F
Were about me and beneath me and above	E
	-
But a rival of Solutr e told the tribe my style was outr e	G
'Neath a tomahawk of diorite he fell	H
And I left my views on Art barbed and tanged below the heart	I
Of a mammothistic etcher at Grenelle	H
	-
Then I stripped them scalp from skull and my hunting dogs fed full	H
And their teeth I threaded neatly on a thong	J
And I wiped my mouth and said quot It is well that they are dead	K
For I know my work is right and theirs was wrong quot	K
	-
But my Totem saw the shame from his ridgepole shrine he came	L
And he told me in a vision of the night	K
quot There are nine and sixty ways of constructing tribal lays	M
And every single one of them is right quot	K
	-
	-
	-
Then the silence closed upon me till They put new clothing on me	G
Of whiter weaker flesh and bone more frail	H
And I stepped beneath Time's finger once again a tribal singer	N
And a minor poet certified by Tr ll	H
	-
Still they skirmish to and fro men my messmates on the snow	O
When we headed off the aurochs turn for turn	P
When the rich Allobrogenses never kept amanuenses	M
And our only plots were piled in lakes at Berne	P
	-
Still a cultured Christian age sees us scuffle squeak and rage	A
Still we pinch and slap and jabber scratch and dirk	Q
Still we let our business slide as we dropped the half dressed hide	K
To show a fellow savage how to work	Q
	-
Still the world is wondrous large seven seas from marge to marge	R
And it holds a vast of various kinds of man	C
And the wildest dreams of Kew are the facts of Khatmandhu	S
And the crimes of Clapham chaste in Martaban	C
	-
Here's my wisdom for your use as I learned it when the moose	M
And the reindeer roared where Paris roars to night	K
There are nine and sixty ways of constructing tribal lays	M
And every single one of them is right	K
