The Portland daily press., 1888-11-12

Sound the loud timbrel and fire off your gun,
Scrape the big fiddle and hammer the drum,
loot the brass horn and blast the cornet
Blow out your brains through the shrill fiageolet:
Pumpon the trombone and whistle the fife,
Play on the clarionet for your dear life,
Sing loud alto or yell soprano,
Tickle.the upper keys on the piano.
Throw into music your body and soul,
Ring all the fire bells and call the patrol.
Let the steam whistles unite in roar,
Send of sky-rockets and things by the score.
