More problems with Young Keith's machine

Mrs Hnaef set me a task, as she said that she was rather keen to view the output from Young Keith's poetry machine. However, being steam-powered, it only prints to paper, whereas Mrs Hnaef, always the technophile, refuses to read.anything which doesn't appear typeset on an electronic screen of some type.

Young Keith gave me a 39.37 inch piece of hand-made paper, and I set to work trying to OCR it with the community's multi-function printer. Several hours of trying later, I eventually gave up and consulted the manual. No surprise it didn't work: apparently it couldn't scan the metre.
