Irepete WW. The Museum of Art A BIDDLE: Guess what building is it That no New Yorkers ever visit And out-of-towners know by heart. Correct: The Musewm of Art. There rests the work of A. Rodin— His bust of William Harriman— The Thinker’s philosophic pose, A frieze of Michael Angelo’s, And several statues in the courses Of Gutzon Borglum’s dashing horses. Upstairs—the work of modern sketchers— The skilled productions of the etchers; And Zuloaga’s shining nudes In stimulating attitudes. I greatly missed September Morn, But viewed some canvases by Zorn... . But I can’t name the slightest part Of what I saw that stands for Art. From what I've seen I will say this— New Yorkers know not what they miss. Nothing to It “ We might—er—as a sort of memento place under the cornerstone a small vial or flask of er—whisky.” “Huh?
