For they had fine-answering Genius, which is never left behind.
So they got incopperated as a city fair and grand,
Spreading memoirs of their splendour over many a distant land,
Mind I say in distant places—people near them knew
Into what unearthly beauty the great town of Glory grew.
Then they sent an ex-tra Governor over seas and far beyond,
Even unto distant Holland, loaded up with many a bond,
Splendidly engraved in London, having just the proper touch
Quite imposing—rather—for they did impose upon the Dutch.
And with every bond the Governor had a picture to bestow
