Then won't you, &c.

I'm an Emperor by profession, but I have my little plan

For improving the position of the German Working-man.

But the International Question stands a little in the way,

So I've asked the Nations to convene—I only hope they may.

Then won't you, &c.

And when they get together they will do—well, we shall see;

But the Socialists shan't have all their own way with Industry.

I recognise the justice of the Workmen's aspirations,

And upon their wants and wishes I would start "negotiations."
