TO
BURTON RASCOE
Before each tarradiddle,
Uncowed by sciolists,
Robuster persons twiddle
Tremendously big fists.
“ Our gods are good,” they tell us ;
“ Nor will our gods defer
Remission of rude fellows’
Ability to err.”
So this, your JURGEN, travels
Content to compromise
Ordainments none unravels
Explicitly . . . and sighs.
