As if in :inswor to his tliou^ht, 



The bif:; beast said: "Professor, 



You arc the man I long have sought, 



I'll make you mv eonfessor: 



Could miracles these days be wrought, 



Of beasts I'd be a lesser. 



"I've often gazed out o'er the park 

 And envied that small creature 

 That greets a friend with joyous bark, 

 As saj'ing: 'Pleased to meetcher,' 

 And as a special friendly mark, 

 Wig-wags his caudal feature. 



"What good are my proportions vast? 

 The canine has me beaten. 

 A million years of my long past 

 I'd give — yes, twice repeatin' — 

 To wag my tail of plaster cast 

 And bone in friendly greetin'. 



« 

 "I'd make some people throw a fit 

 In this here quiet sector; 

 I'd stir things sa they'd notice it, 



My worthy bone collector. 

 Could I but wag my tail a bit 

 At our affable Director."
