"Arcturus" is his other name - I'd rather call him "Star"! It's very mean of Science To go and interfere! I slew a worm the other day, A "Savan" passing by Murmured "Resurgam" - "Centipede"! "Oh Lord, how frail are we"!
I pull a flower from the woods - A monster with a glass Computes the stamens in a breath - And has her in a "Class"!
Whereas I took the Butterfly Aforetime in my hat, He sits erect in "Cabinets" - The Clover bells forgot!
What once was "Heaven" Is "Zenith" now! Where I proposed to go When Time's brief masquerade was done Is mapped, and charted too!
What if the "poles" should frisk about And stand upon their heads! I hope I'm ready for "the worst" - Whatever prank betides!
Perhaps the "kingdom of Heaven's" changed. I hope the "Children" there Wont be "new fashioned" when I come - And laugh at me - and stare!
I hope the Father in the skies Will lift his little girl - "Old fashioned"! Naughty! Everything! Over the stile of "pearl"!
