Socratic -

" They cut it in squares,
sometimes it comes
in little jars — "

" O — ? "

" Under the trees — "
" Where? "

" By his sheep -pen. "

" Whose? "

" The man
who brings eggs:
he put it
in a basket with moss. "

" What? "

" Why,
the little jar. "

" What for? "

" Why,
to carry it over — "

" Over where? "

" The field to Io's house. "

" Then? "

" Her mother took it out
of the moss,
opened it — "

" What? "

" The little jar. "

" And then? "

" We each had some. "

" What? "

" Why the thing
in the little jar
they got
from the straw huts. "

" What huts? "

" Why,
the little huts
under the apple-trees,
where they live — "

" Who live? "

" Why,
the bees . "
