What is this that roareth thus?  
Can it be an OmniBus?  
Yes, the smell and hideous hum  
Indicat an OmniBum!  
Implet in the Corn and High  
Terror me an OmnisBi:  
Bo ye Omni clamitabo  
Ne, ne Omne caedar a Bo—  
Dative be or Ablative  
So thou only let us live:—  
Whither shall thy victims flee?  
Spare us, spare us, Omni Be!  
Thus I sang; and still anigh  
Came in hordes Omnores Bi,  
Et complebat omne forum  
Copia Omnorum Borum.  
How shall wretches live like us  
Cincti Bis Omnoribus?  
Domine, defende nos  
Contra hos Omnores Bos!

With apologies to [Alfred Denis Godley](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Motor_Bus) for wretched mangling of his magnum opus. 😃

Sibili, si ergo  
Fortibus es in ero.  
Nobili, demis trux  
Siuatis enim?  
Causen dux!

Ponders…

Recites out loud…

P.S. Every time I see your name it first reads to me as “Jelly Map”. 🙂
