Precocious shall he prove, and harass

The world with inconvenient ways

And lisped conundrums that embarrass?

(Such as Impressionists delight

To offer each æsthetic gaper,

And faddists hyper-Ibsenite

Rejoice to perpetrate on paper?)

Or, one of those young scamps perhaps

Who love to rig their bogus bogies,

And set their artful booby-traps
