There was an Old Man with a Beard

Have all built their nests in my beard.

“Awake! for Morning in the Bowl of Night
Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to Flight:        
And Lo! The Hunter of the East has caught                        
The Sultan’s Turret in a Noose of Light”
(Edward FitzGerald and the Rubšiyšt of Omar Khayyšm, 1st edition 1859)
