By Abracadabra we signify An infinite number of things. 'T is the answer to What? and How? and Why? And Whence? and Whither?-a word whereby The Truth (with the comfort it brings) Is open to all who grope in night, Crying for Wisdom's holy light. Whether the word is a verb or a noun Is knowledge beyond my reach. I only know that't is handed down From sage to sage, From age to age- An immortal part of speech!
