First Line: BYE BABY BUNTING
Last Line: THE ANGLE OF ITS INCLINATION.
Subject(s): ASTRONOMY & ASTRONOMERS;

BYE Baby Bunting,
Father's gone star-hunting;
Mother's at the telescope
Casting baby's horoscope.
Bye Baby Buntoid,
Father's found an asteroid;
Mother takes by calculation
The angle of its inclination.
