Of the gorilla in its lair;

Nor yet the roar in civic broils

That surges round a tyrant's throne—

Oh, no, the organ voice of oils

Is healthy in its undertone.

O blessed jargon of the mart!

Though your commercial meaning's hid

From me, a layman, to my heart

You bring a soothing nescio quid;

Amid the flux of strikes and plots
