    This goes to pot, that not

    Strive not above what strength hath got,
    Lest in the brawle
    Thou fall.

    The night was thick and hazy
    When the “Piccadilly Daisy”
    Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;
    And I think the water downed ‘em;
    For they never, never found ‘em,
    And I know they didn’t come ashore with me.
    —Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
    How I wonder what you are!
    Up above the world so high,
    Like a diamond in the sky!
    —Ann Taylor (1782–1866)
