King Solomon's off to the furthest West, He is fond of travel and never can rest; But he has no need Of mortal steed Whatever its blood, or whatever its breed; He wants no train Of mortal strain Pages and nobles at home remain; His horse is the throne That he sits upon, By men unattended, but not alone; For everywhere To him repair The birds and the Jinns and the Powers of the Air! That golden throne moves steadily on From the break of dawn till the day is done; With a favouring wind it steers aright Without a pause, through the starry night; Above the earth it holds its way, Without a let, with never a stay, With no desire for corn or hay; It has no tricks, It never kicks, And is not driven by spurs or sticks; No startling sight it passes by Can ever make it jib or shy; 'Tis better than a steam-engine, Because it goes without a line, 'Tis better than the ' Monstre' balloon, For it can visit the sun and moon; And so, no doubt, King Solomon thinks As he sits thereon, and winks and blinks. Why should the eyes of King Solomon wink, And why should he turn uneasilie, As though the silk of his cushions pink Had dared to harbour a rebel flea? The fact is that the sun is burning, And the king keeps this and that way turning, To look for a bird, or a demon, or sprite, Who will fly 'twixt his head and the source of light. He says to himself, 'Why didn't I tell a Fairy to bring my green umbrella? I think I must have left it standing Upon the first or second landing, When I returned from the tea-party, Given by the fair Astarte; Or stay--'twas leaning 'gainst the door, Upon Salome's second floor-- No, no--I left it at the gate The day of Pharaoh's daughter's fete--Then where's the ticket?--...
