Maurice Penfield's Twenty Third Psalm Miss Springmeyer is my hoodoo, I shall not pass. She maketh me to stand in class to recite, which availeth me nothing. She giveth me F and calleth it a flunk and a zero And handeth me oceans of sarcasm. Yea, tho I study much nights and carry home books by the armful. She maketh me to turn red in the face because of my lack of remembrance. She knows when I step out at night and hang around the restaurant. My deeds are numbered. She maketh much of my labor and likens it un- to Christie's bluff, and so thinketh Surely I'm right up against it, and she will cause me to Dwell in the temple of knowledge for evcr and ever.
