(An old Irish Story newly applied.)

["On which horn of the dilemma will the Gladstonians elect to stand?"—Mr. Chamberlain, in his controversy with Sir W. Harcourt on the place of Home Rule in the Gladstonian programme.]

Faithful Unionist Sentry, loquitur:—

Faith! yes, a dilemma, no doubt, is the thing

To stagger Big Bounce, in a fashion Socratic.
