49 Lines to a Superior Young Lady on the Occasion of her First Manifesting a Will of Her Own

Imperious, long-coated Sage

Though your months as men reckon are two

You are wiser than ten times your age

And these rhymes are for you.

Oh Pagan Philosopher small,

You can't read them now, it is true,

For dinner and sleep are your all,

And your knowledge is – you.

But you scream when there's anything wrong,

And you scream till it's righted, you do;

And Creation attends to your song

And the Earth waits on You.
