TO
P. L.
Beneath your roof I chanced to write
These Ballads of the Fiscal Fight,
A somewhat scant selection;
So do not deem me indiscreet
If I should 'dump' them at your feet,
And ask for your Protection!
Whate'er you be, or Fair or Free,
Be still, as ever, fair—to me!

FISCAL BALLADS
FOREWORD
 
I'm only a common workin'-man,
With a eye to my vittles an' beer,
But afore I puts my money on Joe,
There's a thing or two as I'd like to know,
Which 'e 'asn't a-made quite clear.

I admit as it sounds attractive-like
