Eternity’s poisoned draps can never file,

And muckle roots thicken, deef to bobbies’ feet.

A mony-brainchin’ candelabra fills

The lift and’s lowin’ wi’ the stars;

The Octopus Creation is is wallopin’

In coontless faddoms o’ a nameless sea.

I am the candelabra, and burn

My endless candles to an Unkent God.

I am the mind and meanin’ o’ the octopus

That thraws its empty airms through a’ th’ Inane.
