PRIDE.

It's curious fact as ever was known
In human nature, but often shown,
Alike in castle aud cottage,
That pride, like pigs of certain breed,
Will manage to live aud thrive ON "feed"
AS poor as pauper's pottage!
OF all the notable things on earth,
The queerest one is pride Of birth,
Among our fierce democracy"
A bridge across hundred years,
Without prop to save il from sneers
Not even a couple Of rotten Peers
A thing for laughter, sneers, and jeers,
Is American aristocracy
Depend upon il, my snobbsh friend,
Your family thread you can't ascend,
Without good reason To apprehend
You may find il waved at the further end
by some plebian vocationl
Or worse than that, your boosted line
May end in loop Of stronger Irvine
That plagued some worthy relation!
Because you flourish in worldly affairs, IA.
Don't be naughty, and put ON airs,
With insolcnt pride of stationl
Don't be proud, and turn up your nose,
At poorer people in palmer clothes,
But learn, for the sake of your minds repose
That wealth's bubble that comes--and goes!
And that all proud flesh, wherever il grows
Is subject to irritation
