PRIDE or BIRTH.


IT'S curious thing as ever was known
In human nature, but often shown
Alike in castle and cottage,
That pride, like pigs Of q certain breed
Will manage to live and thrive on feed
AS poor as pauper's pottagei
OF all the notable things on earth
The queerest enc is pride of birth
Among our "fierce democracy"
A bridge across a hundred years,
Without prop to save 1t from sneers--V
Not even couple of rotten peers
A thing for laughter, sneers and jeers,
Is American aristocracyi

Without good reason to apprehend
You may find it waxed at the farther
BY some plebeian vocationi
Or, worse than that, your boosted line
May end in loop O: stronger Irvine
