VOL. CXLVIII
The news that fills our daily files From special correspondents—miles Behind the Front—perchance beguiles The simple, but the sceptic riles.
The news from Rott- or Amst-erdam Has German powder in its jam.
The news from Petrograd, when fine And large, 'tis wiser to decline Without the Grand Duke's countersign.
The Russian news that comes from Rome Is as romantic as a pome.
The news that comes from Austrian sources Münchhausen's shade alone endorses.
The news from Nish upon Vienna Acts somewhat like the tea of senna.
News from Vienna wakes in Nish The exclamation Tush! or Pish!
