Let me hear familiar names;
Speak not OF the foreign chap
Who new martial glory claims.
Tomsk and Omsk and Irkutsk, too.
What care 1 what there may hap?
When these Orient troubles brew,
Take, oh. take away the map.
Tell me not OF the Yalu:
Sounds familiar let me hear

Hence with those barbaric nounsj

Let me hear OF homelike towns,
Take, oh, take away the map.
