    Then wilt thou speak of banqueting delights,
    Not charioted by baccus and his pards,
    But rode a simple knight amoung his knights,
    And tho’ she plays no more, o’erlooks the cards.

      I think twenty seven distinct poems, from Ozymandias to Kubla Khan, from Funeral Blues to Green Eggs and Ham, from The Second Coming to Tiger, Tiger, from Eloisa to Abelard to Jabberwocky, are all featured in this one poem.

      Which is quite impressive when you think about it.
