THE ARISTOTELIAN TREASURE-TROVE.
All have heard of "a Manuscript found in a Bottle,"
But here is a waif with romance yet more fraught:
A newly-found treatise by old ARISTOTLE
Is flotsam indeed from the Ocean of Thought.
Oh, happy discoverer, lucky Museum!
Not this time the foreigner scores off JOHN BULL.
Teuton pundits would lift, for such luck, their Te Deum!
No SHAPIRA, Punch hopes, such a triumph to dull!
May it all turn out right! Further details won't tire us.
We may get some straight-tips from that Coptic papyrus!
