By Sir EDGAR SPEYER and the other neutrals.

So my keys tap out the glad message

Of friendship for all and trouble for none.

I ask them what they are fighting about,

And if it is really true that Belgium has been invaded,

And propose that we should all get together and talk it over

Nice and quietly over tea and muffins

And away from all the nasty blood and noise.

Thus I address them,

And humane Germany
