From playboy Chance the nymph no longer flees
His nasal ecstasy beats best Cologne
Her native chauffeur waited in the breeze
Which neither time nor tide can long postpone
Old Galileo's Pisan offerings

And starve the sniveling baby like a dog
Socrates watched his hemlock effervesce
With breaking voice across the Alps they slog
Poor reader smile before your lips go numb
The bell tolls fee-less fi-less fo-less fum
