(After reading “The Forged Casement Diaries” by Dr. Maloney) I
say that Roger Casement Did
what he had to do. He
died upon the gallows, But
that is nothing new. Afraid
they might be beaten Before
the bench of Time, They
turned a trick by forgery And
blackened his good name. A
perjurer stood ready To
prove their forgery true; They
gave it out to all the world, And
that is something new; For
Spring Rice had to whisper it, Being
their Ambassador, And
then the speakers got it And
writers by the score. Come
Tom and Dick, come all the troop That
cried it far and wide, Come
from the forger and his desk, Desert
the perjurer’s side; Come
speak your bit in public That
some amends be made To
this most gallant gentleman That is in quick-lime laid. |
