Text Appearing Before Image:
ng homes aflame,Till evry son of Germany must hang his head in shame. My old country, old country, obedience theirpride, To do the Kaisers awful will a million men havedied; And all you reap is human hate, and lust un-satisfied. O old country, old country, the punishment is greatGod visits on the murderer — a mortal or a state;Long live the Kaiser, live to reap his heritage of hate! Douglas Malloch. (25) LONG LIVE THE KAISER! ! ! I hope not for the Kaisers death, Nay! Nay!Nor crave to note his parting breath To-day. It is my hope the War Lord will Delay and linger here untilI hand my little gift to Bill, And, say! — Let others tweak and twist his nose! Go to it!Aye! Grind your hobnails in his toes! Sure! Doit! But as for me, — say! Im the guy (A self-appointed slugger, I)To wallop Williams cold right eye And blue it. So, fellows, strike below the chin,There get your swings and wallops in,But leave to me his cold right eye,Ah, let me bing it — Im the guy! Ray I. Hoppman (26) CO
Text Appearing After Image:
LONG LIVE THE KAISER! Some need to live that they may learn,Some slowly sip from wisdoms urn.If he would really be the wiser — Long Live the Kaiser.Live! Until Belgiums shattered spiresAre built again to pierce the blue;Live! Until Frances smouldring firesAre quenched by blood of Prussian hue;Live! Until from the oceans bedThe bloated forms are upward led;Live! Until deadly fumes of gasThrough all his veins are made to pass;Live! Until from the depths of hellA hotter, slower fire shall well;Live! Till he feels the blush of shameAt crimes that set the world aflame;Live! Till he hears at his own doorThe clash of arms and cannons roar;Live! Till he sees the ones he lovesHerded like slaves and scourged in droves;Live! Until Fate, remorseless shaper,Declares his plans a scrap of paper;Live! In his place beneath the sunAnd blister till his course is run. Long Live the Kaiser! J. U. HlGINBOTHAM (29) PRECEDENTS One Alexander and his band, Of classic reputation,In sundry frays of ancient day
