“Could not even speak Acroparthianic Greek,

And she’d no instruction in Theology.

One day she found, as she swam around,

A Radcliffe catalogue,

Which shone afar like an evening star

From out the mist and fog.

She paused to rest on a billow’s crest,

In a wreath of sparkling foam,

And when she had read what the catalogue said,

She decided to leave her home.
