The brownies around the world (1894)

Cox, Palmer, 1840-1924 · New York, The Century co · leaf 111

An illustration from The brownies around the world, 1894, leaf 111 — army to the fish. The dust of kings alone is here, From them we nothing have to fear, Their days of tyranny are past, Time suatched them from their thrones at last;No more they 11 range from place to placeAnd subjugate a better race;No more impose a double taskWhen slaves or bondsmen mercy ask;Say… … Upon an island in the NileThe Brownies tarried for a while.Among the ruins scattered roundA temples colonnade they found,And in hieroglyphics spreadThe fate of poor Osiris read, THE BROWNIES IN EGYPT.
