Mark Twain - Ode To Stephen Bowling Bots
Work rating: Low

And did young Stephen sicken,
         And did young Stephen die?
And did the sad hearts thicken,
         And did the mourners cry?

No; such was not the fate of
         Young Stephen Dowling Bots;
Though sad hearts round him thickened,
         `Twas not from sickness` shots.

No whooping-cough did rack his frame,
       Nor measles drear, with spots;
Not these impaired the sacred name
       Of Stephen Dowling Bots.

Despised love struck not with woe
       That head of curly knots,
Nor stomach troubles laid him low,
       Young Stephen Dowling Bots.

O no. Then list with tearful eye,
       Whilst I his fate do tell.
His soul did from this cold world fly,
       By falling down a well.

They got him out and emptied him;
       Alas it was too late;
His spirit was gone for to sport aloft
       In the realms of the good and great.
