Trust me! Success is sure!

Bubbles are bright, bewitch the mob, float far,

And cost the blower little.

The watery sphere looks like a world, a star,

And when it bursts, being exceeding brittle,

Where it explodes (as at the rainbow's foot)

There's hidden treasure—for the clever brute

Who knows that gulls are the great wealth-bestowers,

Bubbles mean solid bullion—for the blowers!"

The shrewder animals applauded. Lupus
