Dance the elastic Dactylics in musical cadences on;

Now their voluminous coil intertangling like huge anacondas,

Roll overwhelmingly onward the sesquipedalian words.

—Browning.

(The above should be rendered in not less than eighteen seconds.)


You couldn’t pack a Broadwood half a mile—

You mustn’t leave a fiddle in the damp—

You couldn’t raft an organ up the Nile,

And play it in an Equatorial swamp.
