The Seasonal Rhapsody and Political Echoes
A fragmented piece blends poetry on money and human aspiration with a historical note on presidential extra sessions. It cites McKinley calling Congress to a thirteenth extra session on March 16 to pass a protective tariff, recounting past such sessions and their causes, then shifts back to spring imagery and a skeptical view of seasonal poets trapped by routine. The mix preserves names like McKinley and Lincoln, while weaving themes of economy, governance, and nature.
