Excerpt from The Black Devils: And Other Poems

You have read of the French Blue Devils, How they climb'd the Alpine Peak, How they fought in France and Flan ders, And their deeds like thunder speak For they fought with Spartan valor, As all history will record, But they failed to check the Teutons, And' their raging drun'k War Lord, America calls her Black Devils, And lets them loose in the awful fray, They have certainly gone in action, They will find 'em hell to play.
