Mice
From puzzling lines on dazzling screens in black,
And such conceits as clownage keeps as price,
We¹ll lead thou to the keyboard of the Mac,
Where thou shallst hear the silent clicks of mice.
And uuindow see thou findsth myself, I play,
The harddisk saith: My dearest friend, farewell;
The screen is black, the treasure uuent away,
provide an Apple now for Mr. Tell.
The user clicketh and typeth and waiteth and feeleth.
Hast thou portray¹d another order art?
Select the contract from look-up menu
And see whole publication of a part.
The user clickth the mouse another time
and me according faileth the latest rhyme.
(B. Hutshespeare, 1587)
