/ A mighty creature is the germ,      \
| Though smaller than the pachyderm.  |
| His customary dwelling place        |
| Is deep within the human race.      |
| His childish pride he often pleases |
| By giving people strange diseases.  |
| Do you, my poppet, feel infirm?     |
| You probably contain a germ.        |
