To point a gun. to WELD a pen.
To curb festive bronco's tricks: -
He knows Il bit of politics,
Let would-be tyrants look askance,
EIe gives each man an equa; chance
Despite his color. class or race
Or threats from show or marict-place.

A dauntless soul, a well-stored brain,
The head OF Age. the heart OF Youth,
And when he speaks he speaks the
Truth.
