How did Medusa do her hair?
The question fills me with despair.
It must have caused her sore
That head of curling snakes to dress.
Whenever after endless
She it finally to coil,
The music of a Passing Band
Would cause each separate hair to stand
On end and sway and and spit,—
She couldn't "do a thing with it."
And, being woman and aware
Of such disaster to her hair,
What could she do but
All whom she met, with freezing eye?
