The Latest School

 See the flying French depart
Like the bees of Bonaparte,
Swarming up with a most venomous vitality.

Over Baden and Bavaria,
And Brighton and Bulgaria,
Thus violating Belgian neutrality.


And the injured Prussian may
Not unreasonably say
"Why, it cannot be so small a nationality
Since Brixton and Batavia,
Bolivia and Belgravia,
Are bursting with the Belgian neutrality.
"

By pure Alliteration
You may trace this curious nation,
And respect this somewhat scattered Principality;
When you see a B in Both
You may take your Bible oath
You are violating Belgian neutrality.
