The Lion in Pain
A Lion in lands of old Osiris,
In the solemn reign of Cyrus,
Splashing midst the Nile's papyrus,
Got a dose of Adder's virus
Which inflamed his either iris,
So that round the tomb of Cheops
He emitted two or three yawps.
MORAL
Universe of pain and yelling! —
What's the use of our rebelling?
