But, as for you, that liberal sneer

Reminds me of the poor old Kaiser.

He was a "socialist," my dear.

Well, I'm your grandson. You'll grow wiser.


[MEMORIES OF THE PACIFIC COAST]

I KNOW a land, I, too,

Where warm keen incense on the sea-wind blows,

And all the winter long the skies are blue,

And the brown deserts blossom with the rose.
