From: Abby Sale
Happy Birthday!
Prime Minister, Bill Gladstone
was born 12/29/1809
(d1898)
Great distress was in the west,
Disraeli got a dreadful scare,
The land of Connaught, depend upon it,
It was near to be civil war;
Gladstone now will quell the row
And I hope next year there will be no need;
Believe me now, it's true you'll find
You'll see a row about the seed.
