ASTRONOMER-GENERAL OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY! DO YOU SEE THE BATTLE STATION APPROACHING FROM THE SORTHWEAST??!!

YES!!!

Do not open this book

‘Your years of toil,’

said Ryle to Hoyle,

‘Are wasted years, believe me.

The steady state

is out of date;

Unless my eyes deceive me,


My telescope

has dashed your hope;

Your tenets are refuted.

Let me be terse:

Our universe

Grows daily more diluted!’


Said Hoyle,‘You quote

Lemaitre, I note,

And Gamow, well, forget them!

That errant gang

And their Big Bang –

Why aid them and abet them?


You see, my friend,

It has no end

And there was no beginning,

As Bondi, Gold,

And I will hold

Until our hair is thinning!’


‘Not so!’ cried Ryle

With rising bile

And straining at the tether;

‘Far galaxies

Are, as one sees,

More tightly packed together!”


‘You make me boil!'

Exploded Hoyle,

His statement rearranging:

‘New matter’s born

Each night and morn,

The picture is unchanging!’


‘Come off it, Hoyle!

I aim to foil

You yet’ (The fun commences)

‘And in a while,’

Continued Ryle,

‘I’ll bring you to your senses!’
