Rest in the East While the Glory Shines

A brief verse noting quiet mornings as creation rests until dawn. It attributes care for man and beast to a watchful power that never sleeps.

Frederick the Great and a Giant Pottsdam Encounter

Translated tale portrays Frederick the Great as eccentric and whimsical, chasing giants and pairing them with giant women. A giant potato-digging woman of seven to eight feet entertains the king, who teases her, flirts, and hands her a note and ring to pass to a Potsdam guard with a sly instruction.

Giant Bride and the King's Odd Marriage Plan

A king orders the tallest soldier to wed an eight foot giantess after a note and ring pass between them. The ceremony proceeds, the groom becomes drunk, and the new wife is permitted to dig potatoes while the king realizes his limits.

The Lawyer's Invocation to Spring Poem Fragment

A Local Newspaper Quote by Bill Nye About Life and Society

A compact Bill Nye quip presents the newspaper as a universal record of mankind and world events. It frames the paper as containing knowledge, poetry, prophecy, obituaries, romance, history, and guidance for three cents, capturing magnanimity and meanness alike.

Scraps and sly sayings in a humorous miscellany

A fragmentary collection of puns and witticisms about everyday items and scenes. The lines joke with wordplay on foot pads and corn plasters, a tramp, a maiden, a tea, ice, Cain, green garments, a dinner bell, death, and a playful dinner check. It closes with a quip about phrases and three loves.
