[For J.B., with the author's affectionate pride.] HINDENBURG TO MACKENSEN. Dear MAC, in that prodigious thrust In which your valiant legions vie With HANNIBAL'S renown, I trust You go a shade more strong than I; Lately I've lost a lot of scalps, Which is a dem'd unpleasant thing; You may enjoy the Julian Alps I do not like this JULIAN BYNG.
