what tho your sistem abound with absurditiz

so that when a sign’z written you kan’t tel what word it iz:

pen pamflets, and posterz, and frendly reviewz;

hand-billz and serkularz widely diffuze.

If singly theze elements don’t seem respektabel,

mix them together in fashion delektabel,

set them to simmer, and take of the scum,

and a short span ov fame iz the resid-u-um.

Yes, yes, yes, yes!

A short span ov fame is the re-sid-u-um.
