She is struck silly by Behemoth BILLY,
That young Teuton Titan, the toughest in history.
O Oracle Mighty (though vocally flighty),
Great Creature, omniscient (if a bit youthful),
Panjandrum-plus-CÆSAR, Herculean Teaser
Of tendencies vicious, or tame, or untruthful!
You mastered the Moral while sucking your coral—
You set the world right—in idea—in your cradle.
Omnipotent Bumble, our pride let us humble,
And take our opinions—like soup—from your ladle!
