Excerpt from Ballads and Other Verses
With his limbs so unloosed; No owl in this world Ever had his claws curled, Ever had his legs slanted, Ever had his bill canted, Ever had his neck screwed Into that attitude. He can't do it, because 't is against all bird-laws. Anatomy teaches, Ornithology preaches An owl has a toe That can't turn out so! I've made the white owl my study for years, And to see such a job almost moves me to tears! Mister Brown, I'm amazed You should be so gone crazed AS to put up a bird In that posture absurd! TO look at that owl really brings on a dizziness; The man wh'o stuffed lzz'm don't half know his business! And the barber kept on shaving.
