To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If a man defended the money he *d got, And during the struggle by chance should be shot. He 'd contend it was right that man to kill. Because he 'd resisted the people's will ! But if it so happened — turn about — That he killed the man who cleaned him out. The politician would straight denounce him, And as a murderer ask to trounce him. In the pulpit, and on the editor's stool, He has always some paid or some pliant tool Ready to back his villainous schemes And befool his dupes with idle dream...s. Should one of the breed your guest ever be. Lock up your spoons^ and take care of the key ! If Mohammedan votes could carry the State, You would hear him cry out, " Oh, Allah is great I " If Sambo prevailed, and the white lost the track. You *d hear him contend that Jesus was black ; 1 2o8 THE DEVIVS VISIT, And that he himself, in his very soul, Regretted he was not black as coal ! S.J. SCRAP 2. PRETENSION. The purse-proud parvenu's pretentious show Marks the vulgarity that lies below ; As diamond rings on dirty fingers But light up the grime that on them lingers- SCRAP 3.
