Y'e Foe To Cathaye

________________________________________________
Title:     Y'e Foe To Cathaye
Author: Ambrose Bierce [More Titles by Bierce]

O never an oathe sweares he,
And never a pig-taile jerkes;
With a brick-batte he ne lurkes
For to buste y'e crust, perdie,
Of y'e man from over sea,
A-synging as he werkes.
For he knows ful well, y's youth,
A tricke of exceeding worth:
And he plans withouten ruth
A conflagration's birth!






[The end]
