The Raving Once upon a lab day dreary, while | pondered weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of the dental lore While | nodded nearly napping, suddenly | heard a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping on the concrete floor. “Oh my God, it fell’”” | muttered as my blue crown hit the floor. Ah, distinctly | remember, it was in the bleak December; And each separate piece of blue wax wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly, | wished the morrow, as | sat in deepened sorrow; For now | had to beg and borrow a blue crown for mine on the floor. For the rare and devilish checker, whom the students call “the Raving’ Was waiting for me evermore. - Presently my soul grew stronger, hesitating then no longer, “Sir,” said I, or “Dr. Raving, accept this blue crown, | implore.” ‘Twas just too bad he was not napping. Sternly he began his yapping. | was melting from his yapping as my classmates sat there clapping. “Please, Sir, won’t you check this blue crown?” As he added to his score, quothe Dr. Raving, ‘“Nevermore.””
