KATYDIDS [ Also see Insects ] Thou art a female, Katydid!   I know it by the trill     That quivers through thy piercing notes       So petulant and shrill.         I think there is a knot of you           Beneath the hollow tree,             A knot of spinster Katydids,--               Do Katydids drink tea?       - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., To an Insect Where the katydid works her chromatic reed on the walnut-tree over the well.       - Walt Whitman,         Leaves of Grass--Song of Myself          (pt. 33, l. 61) Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
