On those two places clear of snow
There have sat in the night for an hour or so,
Before sunrise, and after cock-crow
(He hicking his heels, she cursing her corns,
All to the tune of the wind in their horns),
The Devil and his Grannam,
With the snow-drift to fan 'em;
Expecting
and hoping the trumpet to blow;
For they are cock-sure of the fellow below!

To appreciate the meaning of the partition of
Poland it is necessary to imagine America in possession
of Ireland, and Great Britain divided between France
and Germany, to imagine books and newspapers pub-
lished in the South of England prohibited in the rest of
the kingdom, and all English schools and universities
North of the Trent abolished, in Ireland none but
Americans
qualified
to buy land, and in Scotland, the
North and Midlands only Germans allowed to build
houses.
