On the 24th of June, 1871, Mr. Punch sang, àpropos of the Germans desiring to purchase Heligoland—
"Though to rule the waves, we may believe they aspire,
If their Navy grow great, we must let it;
But if one British island they think to acquire,
Bless their hearts, don't they wish they may get it?"
And they have got it!
