(sing to the tune of “Love and Marriage,” with apologies to Cahn/van Heusen)

Form and function, form and function
Go together like a balm and unction
This I tell you sister
You can't stay long as a resistor

Form and function, form and function
It's a rhetoric you can't disjunction
Ask about authorial intention
And you’ll find it’s tied up in reception ...

And where does this leave us?
