  Megaceph  chosen  to  serve  the  State 
  In  the  halls  of  legislative  debate, 
  One  day  with  all  his  credentials  came 
  To  the  capitol's  door  and  announced  his  name 
  The  doorkeeper  looked  with  a  comical  twist 
  Of  the  face,  at  the  eminent  egotist, 
  And  said:  "Go  away  for  we  settle  here 
  All  manner  of  questions,  knotty  and  queer, 
  And  we  cannot  have  when  the  speaker  demands 
  To  be  told  how  every  member  stands, 
  A  man  who  to  all  things  under  the  sky 
  Assents  by  eternally  voting  'I'."
