A billboard lovely as a tree.
Perhaps, unless the billboards fall,
I'll never see a tree at all.

Sleep is perverse as human nature,
Sleep is perverse as legislature....
So people who go to bed to sleep
Must count French premiers or sheep,
And people who ought to arise from bed
Yawn and go back to sleep instead.

And interrupted a nation's slumbers,
Ringing wrong but similar numbers.
