AN UNDRESS UNIFORM

The apparel does _not_ proclaim the man--

Polonius lied like a partisan,

And Salomon still would a hero seem

If (Heaven dispel the impossible dream!)

He stood in a shroud on the hangman's trap,

His eye burning holes in the black, black cap.

And the crowd below would exclaim amain:

"He's ready to fall for his country again!"
