The Kaiser S Dream.

The kaiser dreamed that he
would reign from Naples to
Alaska; his subjects would be
found in Maine. and up in Atha-
basca. He'd ride in state through
Boston town and swagger in
Toronto. and see the <peoples
kneeling down-where has the
vision gone to? Oh. Wilhelm ate
some liverwurst one night before
retiring. and saw himself in
splendor burst upon world adj
miring. He had a throne set up
in Cork, another one in Lansing.
he saw. through Rochester, New
York. his retinue advancing. The
nations bowed to hail their lord,
revered his two-faced eagle; he
gave the vanquished as reward
a smile sublime and regal. Oh,
Wilhelm ate some rancied cheese
before he sought his slumbers a
lot of batty dreams like these he
had in endless numbers. If you
eat goose before you sleep, and
dream you're Alexander, you say,
Hereafter will keep away from
goose and gander." But Will
helm thought his dreams were
sane. and not the fruit OF sau-
sage: and SO he spoiled with
bloody rain the age OF peace. the
boss age. May he be reigning on
a rock, when this grim ywar is
ended. some lonely crag where
seagulls flock and all the woes
are blended.
