“AM TAG.”
Sir Owen Seamen, the editor of Punch, thus expressed himself ir, a recent issue under the heading, “Dies Irae. T.O the German Kaiser” : You shared our griefs with seeming gentle eyes ; You moved among us, cousinly entreated. Still biding, under that fair outward guise, A heart that cheated. And now the mask is down, and forth you stand Known for a King whose word is no great matter, A traitor proved, for every honest hand To strike and shatter. This was the “Day” foretold by yours and you In whispers here and there with beery clamours— You and your rat-hole spies and blustering crew Of loud Potsdamers. And 10, there dawn another, swift and stern, When on the wheels ot wrath, by Justice token, Breaker of God’s own Peace, yon shall in turn Yourself be broken.
