Bank notes, I mean, as wages.

As she wrote of fair pages.

She was not fast, say what you will,
Though others called her rapid.
Alas, she always dreamed of space,
Her life one long confinement.

And perfect in alignment.

Respect his passion holding,
He wished she'd fold him in her arms
When she was manifolding.

"Come to me, darling Venus,
AS lawyers do, let's close this case
And share the costs between U.S."
