THE MODERN GOOD SAMARITAN
Reading edition
December, 1914
The road that leads to Jericho, By thieves is still beset, For Kaiser Bill, the highwayman, Is there already yet. Thrown thick o'er half a Continent, His blood-stained victims lie; The priest, in horror, lifts his hands, The Levite passes by. The modern Good Samaritan, Kind-hearted Uncle Sam, Exclaims, "This thing gets on my nerves I'll send a cablegram. But while the cash is going free, I'll see what I can get, And since these chaps are down and out; I'll steal their trade, you bet."
