THE KING IS DEAD! LONG LIVE THE KING!
When man, the hunter, winning in the race,
Had conquered much, and, conquering, grown apace,
Till out of victory he found defeat,
And, having eaten all, had naught to eat,—
Then might some Jeremiah sad have said,
Seeing his hopeless case, “The King is dead!”
But man is master most in power to change;
He turned his forest to a cattle range;
