Love’s roundelay—
Ah! Love is King!
In greater contrast is the roystering drinking song of Cardenas, the Mexican bandit, who was characterized by Eugene Cowles without in any way overdoing a part easily overdone.
CARE’S THE KING OF ALL.
Oh, care’s the King of all—
A King who doth appal;
But shall we who love delight bow before him?
Or raise revolting cry—
Proclaiming pleasure high,
Declare it treason if good men dare adore him?
