          The owl has come
          Right into my house;
          He comes down the chimney,
          To look for a mouse -
And he sits on the rim of my old black table.

          Lord, since I see
          Those wonderful eyes,
          As big as a man's
          Or a maiden's in size -
Have I not proved his wisdom is no fable?
