Replace a word or phrase in a famous poem with "rabid weasel"
There where it is we do not need the rabid weasel...

(By the way, Bartleby has "Mending Wall" without this line; must be from an earlier edition I guess.)

23. "There once was a rabid weasel from Nantucket..."
Ok, I only know 2 poems. So sue me.

The OTHER one I know isn't harmed much by the substitution:

"Think as I think," said a man,
"Or you are abominably wicked;
You are a rabid weasel."
And after I had thought of it,
I said, "I will then, be a rabid weasel."

27. "One if by land, two if by sea...
...and I on the rabid weasel shall be
"ready to ride and spread the alarm,
to every Middlesex village and farm."

Okay, that's replacing two words.

30. It is a rabid weasel,
Edited on Mon Mar-23-09 10:26 AM by SacredCow
And he stoppeth one of three.
`By thy long beard and glittering eye,
Now wherefore stopp'st thou me ?
