There once was a man from Nantucket
Hear the mellow wedding bells.
And murmuring of innumerable bees
The crumbling thunder of seas
That solitude which suits abstruser musings
The scurrying furred small friars squeal in the dowse
Dead in the middle of little Italy, little did we know that we riddled two middle men who didn't do diddily
It's hot and it's monotonous
tunditur unda
With the sound, with the sound, with the sound of the ground.
on a proud round cloud in a white high night
Science has Spoiled my Supper
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
