And he ups and remarks:

"If dress-coats is the game

And pow-wow in the Parks,

Then I'm nuts on Sordello and Hohenstiel-Schwangau and similar Snarks."

Now the pride of Bill Nye

Cannot well be express'd;

For he wore a white tie

And a cut-away vest:

Says I, "Solomon's lilies ain't in it, and they was reputed well dress'd."

But not far did we wend,
