“Science! true daughter of old Time thou art!
Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes.
Why preyest thou thus upon the poet’s heart,
Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?
How should he love thee—or how deem thee wise
Who woulds’t not leave him in his wandering,”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, ‘Forty-Niner,
And his daughter Clementine.”
