+    Come, every frustum longs to be a cone,
+    And every vector dreams of matrices.
+    Hark to the gentle gradient of the breeze:
+    It whispers of a more ergodic zone.

+    Come, let us hasten to a higher plane,
+    Where dyads tread the fairy fields of Venn,
+    Their indices bedecked from one to n,
+    Commingled in an endless Markov chain!
+
+    Come, every frustum longs to be a cone,
+    And every vector dreams of matrices.
+    Hark to the gentle gradient of the breeze:
+    It whispers of a more ergodic zone.
+
+    In Riemann, Hilbert or in Banach space
+    Let superscripts and subscripts go their ways.
+    Our asymptotes no longer out of phase,
+    We shall encounter, counting, face to face.
