nd his sub-chief lymphocytesBy the alcohol and lues were knocked cold for several nightsAnd the leaking semilunars and diseased aorta, too,Made a hellish lot of racket—music to delight the crew.In the portal circulation, from appendix and gall tract.Bugs of every kind came jazzing til the liver was quite packed.And from out his local lesion, Spirochaeta VincentiWith Bacillus Fusiformis twists and twirls right merrily.Streptococcus Hemolytic, from the tonsils hits his stride.And old Staph Aureus shimmies as his golden slippers slide.Now our old friend Gonococcus vamps a leucocyte or two,Although she is gram-negative, youd never guess shes blue.Like a cyclone from Wyoming, Pneumoccus brushes past.All except T. B. Bacillus—old T. B. is acid fast.Many other bugs not mentioned shook a most ungodly hoof,Til an undertaker squirted this bird full of awful stuff.Now these bugs are sadly sleeping, like the Pompeians of old,Buried with their habitation—in which once there dwelt a soul. 214
