( A roast in rhyme by Walt Mason.) Men come from every foreign laud To Freedom's kindly shore, And when they reach our well-known strand, They bear their yokes no more. They come with us to work and live. To share our soup and prunes. Enjoying all we have to give. Our bulwarks and our dunes. They seldom have nine dollars’ worth Of assets when they land, But in this fairest land on earth They get the cordial hand. “ Come in,’ ’ we say, with winning smile, “ And make yourselves at home; Take o f f your things and stay awhile. And use our fine tooth comb.’ ’ ’Tis strange than any hyphen skate Can for an hour forget How he was welcomed at our gate, And made a household pet.
