Explore "The Gugs of Gosh" by C.J. Dennis on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Somewhere or other, 'tis doubtful where, / In the archives of Gosh is a volume rare, / A precious old classic that nobody reads, / And nobody asks for, and nobody heeds; / Which makes it a classic, and famed thro' the land, / As well-informed persons will quite understand.
'Tis a ponderous work, and 'tis written in prose, / For some mystical reason that nobody knows; / And it tells in a style that is terse and correct / Of the rule of the Swanks and its baneful effect / On the commerce of Gosh, on its morals and trade; / And it quotes a grave prophecy somebody made.
