Thou ne'r art altogether hastie, Thy articles do stand time's testie! Thy avatar, be it quite bouncy, Wee red-haired lassie in dress flouncy. If thou were it and it wer't not art crea, The young lads here would rin an' chase thee! I doubt na, whiles, others may thieve; Thy well-writ content, n'er do grieve. For the plagerizin' that they do, Is more than wee bit flat'ry too! White Mousie, thou art no thy-lane, Proving foresight is na in vain. Thoust save us all anguish an' pain, For knowledge promis'd joy doth bring! Edited December 15, 2017 by Snargfargle 7 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, it just rhymed better that way, but since Aphrodite sprang thus I suppose it's also a form of flattery. Oh, and I believe it was the danglers of Ouranos, his son Cronus was the snipper.
