He will have no cause for sorrow
When he hears how bad I'm beat
Like a noble modern Cesar
Once put the thing aside,
Yet got the nomination,
But 'twere better had died.
"should the base plebeian rabbls
Dare to cast it, falthless eye
Where Frank Blair, my beaten cons0rt,
Weeps above his PINT OF rye.
Seek him: say the loyal people
Had no FOR him or me,
Though, MS true, we both have thought so.
We must bow 20 the decree.
" And for thee. Oh, noble Andy.
In whose shoes hoped o. stand,
Reach to me from ont the While House
