1. O sea of endless knowledge
In which even seas are drowned

2. I need just four things from you
Yet even those make me confused

3. A misspelling versus the original word
Like the emergence of differences

4. To me there are nine more
That I've counted and more

5. Perhaps I've even combined them
To where they can't be counted

6. An ancient city
Where all is filtered

7. A soft garden
With a bright orchard

8. A time period that even
Months of Rome seem brief

9. And a singing elder
Whose passion is remembered
