PUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI.

There was an old man of Potsdam
Who thought he would make a Grand Slam;
When he lost every trick,
And they said, "Are you sick?
He answered (in English), “I am.”

'Yon foe," said the Kaiser, "we'll break,
God leading, with Me in the wake;"
But he bolted at Nancy,
Remarking, "I fancy
My Friend must have made a mistake!"
