Uncaged and untamed in a woody domain,

A manner peculiar to Geo. Francis Train.

His lectures all seem so wild and erratic,

His manner, at times, so raving, dramatic,

In a whirlwind of passion he prances and strides,

Then subdues—and his rage into poetry glides.

A perfect enigma, and a genius as well,

A tornado, a storm, and then comes a spell

Of brightness and sunshine, ’mid thunder and rain,

Peculiar alone to Geo. Francis Train.
