The Bat of Emily:
O, Astutest Emily,
See the Bat in you and me;
In firmament echo his song,
And let the distance near or long,
I perceive it in my heart
Half of it dun in your art;
The other half to elate
Shelter in the umbrella’s fate;
And to our bold scrutiny
Lips of the bat sing secrecy;
As you and me and the bat fly
Adroitly praise him in his sky,
Never doubt in you and me,
I believe you Emily.
