100,000,000,000,000 poems
The wild horse champs the Parthenon's top frieze
Since Elgin left his nostrils in the stone
Replies like this the dumbstruck brain may tease
And empty cages show life's bird has flown
Oh how oh how he hates such pilferings
Filching the lolly country thrift helped save
An icicle of frozen marrow pings
To break a rule Britannia's might might waive
The genealogist with field and fess
A piercint wit would sprightliest horses flog
Poor Yorick comes to bury not address
No need to cart such treasures from the fog
Ventriloquists be blowed you strike me dumb
In cognac brandy is Bacardi rum?
