P. Nigidius Figulus, says Cicero,
Was diffident about his ability
To sometimes perform miracles.
He wondered if words
Came before things, so that
Gods shuddered into being
Because the word "gods"
Needed to mean something.
(If stag beetles have gods
They may include Nigidius
Who gave them their Latin name.)
