says:
TO Wilhelm von Hohenzollern. King
Of Prussia, Emperor of all Germany
and envoy Extraordinary OF Al
mighty God
NY Dear Wilhelm / can call you
BY that familiar name. for / have al
ways been very close TO you-much
closer than you could ever know.
From the time that you were yet
an undeyeloped being in your mothers
womb have | shaped your destiny for
my purpose.
IN the days OF Rome created a
roughneck known in history as Nero.
He was a vulgar character and suited
my purpose at that particular time
In these modern days a classic demon
and efficient supernatural was need
ed. and as / had known the Hohen-
zollern blood picked you as my spe-
cial instrument to place on earth an
annex of hell l gave you abnormal
ambition. likewise an oversupply of
egotism that you might not discover
your own failings; | twisted your
mind to that of mailman with GER
tain normal tendencies TO carry you
by, a most dangerous character placed
in power: | gave you the power of
hypnotist and certain magnetic force
that you might sway your people. /
am responsible for the deformed arm
that hangs helpless on your left. for
your crippled condition embitters your
life and destroys all noble impulses
that might otherwise cause me ankle
ty, but your strong arm is driven
by your ambition that squelches all
sentiment and pity; ] placed in your
soul deep hatred for all things Eng
fish, for OF all nations on earth / hate
England most; wherever England
plants her flag she brings order out OF
chaos and the hated cross follows the
Union Jack; under her rule wild tribes
become tilIers OF the soil and in due
time practical citizens; she. is the
great ciyilizer of the globe and
HATE HER ! planted in your soul
cruel hatred for your mother because
SHE was English, and left my good
friend Bismarck to fan the flames
had kindled. Recent history proves
how well our work was done 1t
broke your royal mothers heart, but
gained my purpose.
The inherited disease Of the Hohen-
1ollerns killed your father, just as it
will kill you, and you became the
ruler Of Germany and tool of mine
sooner than I expected
To assist you and further hasten my
work, sent you three evil spirits
Nietzche, Tritschkeand, later Bern
hardi--whose teachings inflamed the
youths Of Germany. who in good time
would be willing and loyal subjects
and eager to spill their blood and pull
your chestnuts. yours and mine; the
spell has been perfect you cast your
ambitious eyes toward the Mediter-
ranean, Egypt. India and the Oar
danelles and you began your great
railway to Bagdad, but the ambitious
archduke and his more ambitious wife
stood in your way. 1t was then that
sowed the seed in your heart that
blossomed into the assassination Of
the duke and his wife, and all hell
smiled when it saw how cleyerly you
saddled the crime on Serbia. | saw
you set sail for the fiords of Nor
way, and / knew you would prove an
alibi. How cleverly done, so much
like your noble grandfather who also
secured an assassin to remove old
King Frederick OF Denmark, and later
robbed that country of two provinces
that gave Germany an opportunity to
become a naval power. Murder is dir
ty work, but it takes Hohenzollern
to make away and get by.
Your opportunity was at hand; you
set the world on fire and bells of hell
were rigging; your rape on Belgium
caused much JOY. 1t was the begin
ming, the foundation of perfect hell
on earth; the destruction of noble
cathedrals and other infinite works of
art was hailed with JOY in the infer
nal regions.
You made war on friends and foe
alike and the murder of civilians
showed my teachings had borne fruit
Your treachery toward neutral nations
FASTENED a universal upheavel, the
thing / most desired Your undersea
warfare is master stroke. from the
smallest mackerel pot to the great
Lusitania you show no favorites; as a
war lord you stand supreme, for you
have no mercy; you have no consider
alton for the baby clinging to its
mothers breast as they both go down
into the deep together, only to be torn
apart and leisurely devoured by
sharks down among the corals.
/ have trolled over the battlefields
OF Belgium and France ! have seen
your hand Of destruction everywhere;
rs all your work super-iend that
made you. / have seen the fields of
Poland: now Wilderness fit for
proving beasts only; no merry chill
dren in Poland now; they all sue
cubed to frost and starvation-I
drifted down into Galicia where for
merly Jews and Gentiles lived happily
together; I found but ruins and ashes;
I felt curious pride in my pupil, for
il was all above my expectation. /
