With profile long and sober

With transit, level, book and

And glittering axo to swat the

Squints through the glass along

Swings both his arms with

Yells, Hold that O-D-rod

Who raves and snorts like one

Jumps in the air ond claws his

Whene'er lie sees a coolie tako,
A pull at his most cherished
stake?

The Engineer.
Who swears he'll charge an

For stakes pulled out by boya

While on all fours he ties in

To find the vanished #tako

The Engineer. Who saws the air, with 'mad-
doned rago
And turns with hate the figured
page,
And thon with patience out of
joint
Ties in anotherreference point?
The Engineer.
Who deals with figures quito.

And tells yousolid rock is loose, That granite is no more than

While mud is lighter than sea

The Engineor Who soos his work all going

When suddenly there comes a

Whose prices prove he's drop

Who promptly blames the subs

In spite of his peculiar ways, While others harvest all the

That spring from his prolific
