Lines To Be Embroidered On A Bib

The Child Is Father Of The Man,

But Not For Quite A

So Thomas

Never drank his medicine;

So Blackstone and

Refused cod-liver oil;

So Sir Thomas

Never heard of a calory;

So the Earl of

Murdered Rizzio without the aid of vitamins or calisthenox;

So Socrates and

Ate dessert without finishing their potato;

So spinach was too

For Leonardo da Vinci;

Well, it's all immaterial,

So eat your nice cereal,

And if you want to name your ration,

First go get a reputation.
