SON GOF THE CENTRAL SOCIET

(From Punch.)
What makes our flag o'er distant seas,
To brave the battle and the breeze,
(Aside.) And lets us live at home in ease?
Protection!

What won the day at Waterloo,
At Trafalgar, and Acre, too,
(Aside.) And helps us to put on the screw?
Protection!

What is it saves us from dissent?
What raises profits cent. per cent.,
(Aside.) And at war-prices holds the rent?

Protection 1

What makes our soil grow wheat and oats?
What swells your pound to five-pound notes,
(Aside.) Besides securing county votes?
Protection!

What keeps down democratic views?
What saves our isle from wooden shoes,
(Aside.) And lets us pay our mortgage dues?
rruLectiou I

What, more than muskets, men, or mortars,
Spreads England's power through earth's four quarters,
(Aside.) And portions off our sons and daughters?
Protection !
What sharpen'd Watt's and Arkwright's brains?
What made power-looms and railway trains,
(Aside.) And keeps down surly labourers' gains?
Protection

What saves from continental meat,
And gives as much of British wheat—
(Aside.) As we can grow, not you can eat?
