Moon and planets to my thinking,

Just have had a bout of drinking

And are setting at defiance

All the laws of musty science.

Yonder poplar, tall and taper,

Round and round me cuts a caper;

Oaks and elms, and firs and birches,

Hedges, houses, steeples, churches,

All to-night are drunk together,

And dance as lightly as a feather.
