Ladies of the Night

I just spent more than three hours in the thrall of two of my ladies of the night, temptresses both of them! We toured the night with abandon, visiting Venus, Saturn, and Jupiter, then back again, but it wasn't enough. We spotted the globular cluster M68 south of Corvus in Hydra, yet they cried for more. We went to the galaxies of Virgo, Leo, Hydra, Ursa Major and elsewhere until, at last, they were drunk with the views. Spent, I put them aside, but I know they will soon call for me again, compelling me to dance them through the heavens, their willing slave! I am undone!

There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers.

Sweet the coming on
Of grateful evening mild; then silent night
With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heaven, her starry train.
