When one with t'other straightaway agrees
His nasal ecstasy beats best Cologne
The showman gargles fire and sword with ease
One gathers rosebuds or grows old alone
Old Galileo's Pisan offerings
Signalling gauchos very rarely shave
A daring baron pockets precious Mings
The nicest kids for strickiest toffees crave
When dried the terrapin can naught express
Shallots and sharks'fins face the smould'ring log
And played their mountain croquet jungle chess
One misses cricket hearth and croaking frog
The Taj Mahal has trinkets spice and gum
They're kings we're mammal-cousins hi ho hum
