2for tea cucumber sandwiches a scone
3forms shadowy with indecision wheeze
4one gathers rosebuds or grows old alone

5O Parthenon you hold the charger’s strings
6rejecting ermine to become a knave
7the learning linguist cameramaniac sings
8victorious worms grind all into the grave

10shallots and sharks’fins face the smould’ring log
11and played their mountain croquet jungle chess

12Southern baroque’s seductive dialogue
13the Taj Mahal has trinkets spice and gum
14a wise loaf always knows its humblest crumb
