Find out some fault in Dame Nature’s economy—

Spots in the moon, which betoken a change.

Quake, ye Geologists!

Tremble, Conchologists!

Put Retorts and Crucibles, Chemists, in order!

Beware, Antiquarians,

They’re Disciplinarians,

These talented Blues who are passing the Border!

Put on your spectacles, star-gazing gentlemen—

Steam-boat inventors, avoid all disorder—
