1. O scholar unmatched in eminence
Among the exalted, be they near or far

2. Tell us a name you see, its entirety
Contrasted in description, if a letter is omitted

3. Good consequence, though first met with
Dislike and anger

4. It numbers three, and naught
In what I've mentioned is ever wrong

5. And if two thirds of it should fall
What remains is flawed in the middle

6. Yet it warrants correction as a right
And you'll find its middle never sound
