MEASURE FOR MEASURE
Although to some it may seem strange,
But nothing stays the same but change;
And so the pendulum now swings
About the way we measure things.
And now the inches, yards and feet

Now kilometers are in style.

Let's greet the : news without ambivalence
And check this table for equivalents.
