The acid tongue with gourmet's expertise
For tea cucumber sandwiches a scone
Replies like this the dumbstruck brain may tease
Normal one aims to be and share the throne
The frisian Isles my friends are cherised things
Whose ocean still-born herrings madly brave
They both are right not unformed smatterings
For burning bushes never fish forgave
It's no good rich men crying Heaven Bless
Or grinning like a pale-faced golliwog
And played their mountain croquet jungle chess
Bard I adore your endless monologue
Where no one bothered how one warmed one's bum
For Europe's glory while Fate's harpies strum
