But now, oh, later recompense ! when boys of modern days But shame their decent training—fall into rowdy ways And learn to rave and tear, to pull each other's hair, ‘To call each other dirty names, to fisticuff and swear, And thus to manhood grow, we send them off, you know, To Washington, for congressmen—oh, oh, oh !

Sing, with cleft chord attuned, the rhyming rare Of master’s hand on some rich instrument. And hither dance, twin sisters, of a height, Twin miracles of mated loveliness, Yet in the eyes of each her own dear light, And on her lips a differing caress, Come, dancing words, this delicate, fair sight Be shrewd in rhymed divergence to express, AMos ®, watts.
