The RHYME OF The RIVER
BY W. HoLLISTER WALL.

MYOW what do you suppose Hendrix Hudson would say
IN II he could float up the big river today
n y That still bears his name?-That liberal giver
bestowed it on Bay, and on Strait, and on River
10 you ever believe the old Dutchman could dream
u the destiny waiting his broad-breasted stream?
" The millions that crow it's hospitabe shores,
mat It bears on its bosom a commerce of stores
would yearly have ransoned his whole Lowland nation
And paid a fat fee for his each exploration?
Ihat steam-propeHed steel would pillow swift through it's waves
And bridges would stretch twixt the banks that it laves?
Then think how his noodl would spin with the wonder
That through our twin tubes we are now shooting under!
But we're not held down b y his narrow confines,
Our think-works are built o. more clear-seeing lines,
And we don't have to look ahead three hundred years
To see what's achieved by these bold engineers.
Manhattan Is packed to tn e forty-fourth floor;
She could hardly be up n the air" any more.
These tunnels will whisk her surplusage due west,
Where real homes await them, low priced and the best.
In a couple Of decades, or double at most,
To our wales and our hills win flock the great host
That will build a metropolis equal in size
To the one that just over the Hudson now lies.
Greater Newark Will always have room and to spare,
And will never, like 'tother, go up in the air.
