This the gas oxygen—that you cannot see

Which proportions with iron in atoms three,

To make the chemical of formulæ O₃ Fe₂.

That combines in atoms of twenty-eight times two,

To form the ore, gathered out of the pit,

Which was melted in a furnace, blazingly lit,

That made the iron “carbonised” and clean,

Which was “blown” in the “converter” and “puddled” to steel,
