A DISCOVERY IN BIOLOGY, by                    
First Line: I think I know what cupid is
Last Line: Twill heal you to perfection.
Subject(s): Cupid; Eros


I THINK I know what Cupid is:
Bacteria Amoris;
And when he's fairly at his work,
He causes dolor cordis.
So, if you'd like, for this disease,
A remedy specific,
Prepare an antitoxine, please,
By methods scientific.
Inoculate another heart
With germs of this affection,
Apply this culture to your own,
'Twill heal you to perfection.
