“When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with such applause in the lecture room,
How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
Till rising and gliding out, I wanderd off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Lookd up in perfect silence at the stars.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)

His model was posed up a ladder.
Said Titian, That position
Calls for coition,
So he lept up the ladder and had her.”
