Kant and the Copyright
[Immanuel Kant and the Copyright]
 

[One night as Kant lay somnulative]
 

[Appeared the categoric imperative]
 

[Who wrote a maxim in his scrawl]
 

[On Kant's unblemished bedroom wall.]
 

[And thereupon Kant set to relate]
 

[This maxim to the German state.]
 

[His end achieved, he saw his duties]
 

[In feasting from the royalties.]

[Translation: J. J. Fehr]
