The Court-Martial.
Field Marshal Leo then and there
A stern Court-Martial held;
The prisoner, with defiant air,
Explained why he rebelled.
"Such conduct," said the President,
"Admits of no defence;
But since you ask it, I'll consent
To hear the evidence."
'Twas heard—in "Zooland" of that week
You'll find the Owl's report;
The President then rose to speak,
The sentence of the Court.
"On all counts guilty he appears—
The prisoner's sentenced to
A lenient term—a hundred years
Confinement in the Zoo!"
