[A German cargo of lead has been captured.]
It is not lost to you, so make no moan;
You shall receive it back, O Potsdam pundit;

Intending to refund it.
And goodly interest it shall not lack,
A generous rate per cent. for every particle;
We take the raw material, sending back
The manufactured article.
