A POET OF FACT.

A POET OF FACT.
Say,
1t was Hobson's choice,
And he took it;
And look at him today!
There isn't
A chap
In a mile and lap
With half such
A snap
AS Hobson has got and say
If any young fellow
That's fighting
Wants honor and glory and fame
You bet
Your sweet life
He must peel for
The strife,
And show the whole world
That he's game!
