comforted by its logic's rigour, Claims ontology for the realm of pure, The other,
with blessed scientist's vigour, Acts hastily on models that endure), From ancient
grudge break to new mutiny, When ‘being’ drives a fly-man to blaspheme. From
forth the fatal loins of these two foes, Researchers to unlock the book of life; Whole
misadventured piteous overthrows, Can with their work bury their clans' strife. The
fruitful passage of their GO-mark'd love, And the continuance of their studies sage,
Which, united, yield ontologies undreamed-of, Is now the hour's traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend, What here shall miss, our toil shall strive
to mend.</p>
