2through snobbish growing round her hemline zone
3the understanding critic firstly sees
4the thumb- and finger-prints of Al Capone

6rejecting ermine to become a knave
7they both are right not unformed smatterings
8till firemen come with hose-piped tidal wave

10and starve the sniveling baby like a dog
11watching manure and compost coalesce
12Southern baroque’s seductive dialogue
13and let you off from your opinions glum
14soliloquies predict great things old chum
