Classic Poem

War between England and the United States!
Impossible! Pshaw! Stuff! — " United States!"
Why, they themselves are the United States:
London and Boston are United States:
New York and Liverpool United States:
Cotton and spinning very United States:
Progress and liberty, United States:
Their names, fames, books, bloods, all United States.
But " bloods are up" in the United States?
Well; — would'st have " low" bloods in the United States?
No: high bloods — high — in both United States:
So high, that, seeing their United States,
They scorn to stoop from such United States
Solely to please poor dis -United States.
