Monday's child on swift approach, a monster on the mount,

Sees Sunday's child turned lachrymose, a maudlin song abounds

Then ram

Then crow

Then cat did spy, and in a flash did flee

While bairn – now yoked with mother's tail – escaped into the sea.

Come hither, ye, drum!

Brother Robin takes flight

See ye conjured from cauldrons

Fer gypsies and knights.

She waves to me, still

Radiance borne again through the luminiferous ether.
