PUNCH TO VICTOR EMANUEL.
Mr. Punch, in warning letter to Emanuel, thus at.
emp,s to the suspicious Of the latter against the
designs Of his imperial ally.
TARPEIA-A W AIMING.
AS one Re Gaauiuonno should write to another,
This letter, beneath his broad British seal,
King P.~ch seDds King Victor Emanuel, his brother;
With best wishes for bis and Ssrdnias veal.
With ipt'reet, dear brother, right honest and hearty
We have waich'd the past progress of you and your
State;
Seen Par otism still vauqushnx Party,
And TEACHING how e'en small Power may be great.
Each stout bearted protest gainst pretensio
Ia cur brotherly heart quick echo has found;
Ea sGort 70 solder Italian dissension,
Us to YOU heart and hope still more closely has bound
From the foot Of your Alps Freedoms chosen dominion,
shore your lgnt-oy TO friend, rage aud envy TO foe
While the black Austrian vulrure expanded her piniou,
Like death shade DER Lombsrdy, crouchng in WOO
We trusted, we Logged you shared in your gadness,
AS Italy, State after Safe, own'd you rend;
And tyranny, stuDg by that Joy into madness,
Babe whet claw and talon, the victim to rend.
Had the vulture made swoop-'ere the summons was
Shield shield sword by sword Eve had stood, close
vulture .ngs vulture tslons our onset had broken,
While Red Cross and Tricolor waved side by side
But you waved hct and hasty you bent 10 Impotence;
You babe to your borders the night OF the Gaul;
He needed no challenge, asked no provocati0ns:
50 eager to come, he scarce waited call.
Shall Eagle be trusted to war upon vultureS
Bird Of rapine against bird of rapine arrayp
As well Light wed Darkness Brute Force embrace Cul
AS Absolute Will second Freedom essay.
Shall grapes grow on thorns, or shall figs spring on
Blame not these who reer look such strange fruitags
What kin Owls the wind round your snow peaks that
whistles,
With the breath cour.ers UTTER how'd head and boat
knee9
We think of the legend of Rome's early day;
or Tarpeia, who opened the gate TO the foemen,
Nor dreamd her that opened they first would betray.
She had the gold gleam-by the we'll she tarreA-
OF their bracelet; to womaush long ng she yields;
She would ope, for the gauds on their arms that they
carried;
They promised they entered; she died meath their
shields
May the lot of rarpes from you be avertedl
For your too cay faith you ne'er have too bush
When by these deepders betrayed and deserted,
You ind that the shields which should shelter can
crush.
