THE DYSPEPTIC
Frown,quoth my lord Stomach,And I lowered.Quarrel, quoth my lord Liver,And I lashed my wife and children,Till at the breakfast-tableHell sat laughing on the egg-cup.Lie awake all night, quoth my two Masters,And I tossed, and swore, and beat the pillow,And kicked with disgust,And slammed every door tight that leads to sleep and heaven.
[Credo, and Other Poems]
