First come I; my name is J-W-TT.
There's no knowledge but I know it.
I am master of this college:
What I don't know isn't knowledge.

— Henry Charles Beeching The Masque of Balliol (1880)

Here am I, the often sat on
Dancing don; my name is T-TT-N;
Like old wine in a new bottle
Is my talk on Aristotle.
