Four-Footed, But Devoid Of Life, No Anim...
Four-footed , but devoid of life , No animal am I ; If you would form my dainty limbs , This plan you needs must try : From the proud head of Brian Boru
Break off the towering crest , Or steal the greatest Hum of all Which this false world infest . Next into fragments rend the air , Borrow a voice from , wild despair , And rob the Bard of that one note
, Which gives him sense and sound , Then all amid the rugged rocks Seek close what may be found . And now but one more task remains—Don — — — ' t — let — — your j courage — tj fail ; j
Go seize the haughty Kaiser ' s crown , And tie it to my tail . Thus formed from strange materials , see , Complete at length I stand , And watch the tiny wavelets dance
Upon the sun-lit sand ; Or else ' mid sacred groves of oak , I clothe the Dryads' home , Or steered by some light fairy hand , I float upon the foam .
Strength give I to the sick and weak—Bring roses to the pallid cheek ; The voice of man ' most faithful friend , Startled by me , the midnight thief Fears to complete his crime ;
And last of all , to make an end , The veriest cur that ever lived Might solve this mystic rhyme .
