FROM A FULL HEART.
In days of peace my fellow-men
Rightly regarded me as more like
A Bishop than a Major-Gen.,
And nothing since has made me warlike;
But when this age-long struggle ends
And I have seen the Allies dish up
The goose of HINDENBURG--oh, friends!
I shall out-bish the mildest Bishop.
_When the War is over and the KAISER's out of print,_
_I'm going to buy some tortoises and watch the beggars sprint;_
_When the War is over and the sword at last we sheathe,_
_I'm going to keep a jelly-fish and listen to it breathe._
I never really longed for gore,
And any taste for red corpuscles
That lingered with me left before
The German troops had entered Brussels.
