BOSTON NURSERY RHYME: RHYME FOR A CHEMICAL BABY by FLAVIUS JOSEPHUS COOK

First Line: OH, SING A SONG OF PHOSPHATES
Last Line: MEN BEGAN TO REIGN.
Subject(s): CHEMISTRY;
OH, sing a song of phosphates,
Fibrine in a line,
Four-and-twenty follicles
In the van of time.

When the phosphorescence
Evoluted brain,
Superstition ended,
Men began to reign.
