A Twentieth Century Lyric
Tell me, mighty-minded maiden,
With an intellect divine,
Are you. science-crowned marvel,
Psychologically mine?
Does your registering apparatus
Note the waves of my delight,
When my visual end organs
Of your optics get a sight?
Your medulla oblongata
Distributes your sensor force,
Does sensation of my meaning
through your cortex pierce perforce?

Or intuitional play?
Wondrous being, prob.em-laden,
All my earnest pleadings bless;
With an auditory fusion,
Speak a calm, reflective Yes"
