VERSES TRIVOCULAR by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE

Poet Analysis

First Line: OF ONE SCRAP OF SCIENCE I'VE EVIDENCED OCULAR
Last Line: SO WITH THEM WILL I FINISH THESE VERSES TRIVOCULAR.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS;
Of one scrap of science I've evidence ocular.
A heart of one chamber they call unilocular,
And in a sharp frost, or when snow-flakes fall floccular,
Your wise man of old wrapp'd himself in a Roquelaure,
Which was called a Wrap-rascal when folks would be jocular.
And shell-fish, the small, Periwinkle and Cockle are,
So with them will I finish these verses trivocular.
