London:
GRANT RICHARDS,
1901.
A for Arab.
This Arab is upset, I fear; Look at his pretty shield and spear. He's stuck two pistols in his sash, And, dear me, how his eyes do flash!
At home he has a horse to ride; To "scour the desert" is his pride. His horse is of the purest breed; Some people call his horse a steed. [Pg 9] 
B for Boer.
Here is your little brother Boer, Of course, you've heard of him before; He has a naughty Uncle Paul, Who used to want to eat us all.
Although he does not wear a tie He's just as white as you or I, And just as fond of cake and fruit; The difference is that he can shoot. [Pg 10] 
C for Chinaboy.
Li has a pigtail and a fan, And yet he's not a Chinaman; In fact, he is his mother's joy, A merry little Chinaboy.
His father is a Mandarin, His father's name is Loo Too Sin. They put no sugar in his tea, Yet he's as good as good can be. [Pg 13] 
D for Dutch.
Miss Gretchen Groople! She is Dutch: In Holland there are many such. Her shoes are wooden, like the floor; How nice she keeps her pinafore!
She says that there is nothing finer Than the Dutch Queen, Wilhelmina; She says that she has never seen a Sweeter Queen than Wilhelmina. [Pg 14] 
E for English.
The English are a splendid race, Sturdy of limb, honest of face; They own (this is geography) Much of the land and all the sea.
That is to say, they rule the waves, They never, never will be slaves. They're brave, but do not want to fight, And if you're English you're all right. [Pg 17] 
F for French.
The French can cook, and fence, and dance, They're fond of shouting "Long live France!" They make the prettiest hats and frocks, Also French pickles and French clocks.
They shave their poodles, drink much wine, And laugh a great deal when they dine. French boys play soldiers now and then, And must be soldiers when they're men. [Pg 18] 
G for German.
Hans, as you see, to town has been; His waistcoat's red, his sunshade green. He lives beside the river Iser, And calls his emperor the Kaiser.
In Germany, no end of toys Are made for English girls and boys. The English children merely break them; Hans sits at home and helps to make them. [Pg 21] 
H for Hungarian.
In Hungary they hunt and fish; Between ourselves, I often wish I lived there, for it must be grand;— I've heard the Blue Hungarian Band.
In Hungary a boy wears white Blouses, his knickers fit him tight, He has top boots of patent leather, And in his hat a peacock's feather. [Pg 22] 
I for Indian.
The Indian boy is neatly dressed; He has no shirt, he wears a crest Of eagle's feathers on his head, His skin is of a coppery red.
If you said to him, "You and I Will run and catch a butterfly," The Indian boy would say, "No! No! I wish to chase the buffalo." [Pg 25] 
J for Japanese.
The little Japs are rather small, Even their fathers are not tall; They're very fond of parasols, They dress themselves just like their dolls.
They live beneath the sunniest skies, Their hair is black to match their eyes; Their robes are black to match their hair, And, O! what tiny shoes they wear. [Pg 26] 
K for Kaffir.
This Kaffir looks a trifle sly, He smiles and smiles, I wonder why? Perhaps he's playing at a game, Or thinking of his long, long name.
His name, you know, is Washington Neb-u-chad-nez-zar Solomon Sambo Snowball Timothy Jack Adolphus Rule Britannia Black. [Pg 29] 
L for Laplander.
I think the Laplander is nice, He lives among the snow and ice; The reindeer drags his sledge for him, And gives him meat and milk to skim.
His spears are sharp—they shine like steel; He hunts the walrus and the seal. Often, when he has time to spare, He hunts the white or polar bear. [Pg 30] 
M for Mexican.
The plucky little Mexican Rides on the pampas like a man; His horse may kick, and plunge, and rear, He does not feel the least bit queer.
If he should see an old grey goose Or a young turkey running loose, You may be pretty certain that He'd catch it with his lariat. [Pg 33] 
N for Neapolitan.
The Neapolitan is wise, He plays the pipes for pence, and buys Ice-cream and candy every day To help him on his weary way.
His tunes are chiefly of one note, He has a sheepskin for a coat, His water-bottle's painted yellow, He is a handsome little fellow. [Pg 34] 
O for Odalisque.
O pretty little Odalisque, I know you want to dance and frisk And play at hide and seek with me; And yet, you know, it cannot be,
Unless—unless, my dear, you choose To put away those curious shoes, Also your coat, and cap, and veil: They'd hang up nicely on a nail. [Pg 37] 
P for Persian.
The Persian has a funny hat, He often sits upon a mat; He hears the bulbul sing, and roves Through rose-gardens and lemon groves.
Child, if by any chance you meet A little Persian in the street, Do not be rude and cry "Yah-yah!" But ask him if he's seen the Shah. [Pg 38] 
Q for Quakeress.
I like the little Quakeress, She is so quaint; I like her dress, Her very, very plain white bonnet, Her stuff gown with no trimming on it.
Her hands are pink, and soft, and small, They peep out from her dark green shawl. She lives on milk, and bread, and honey, She must be saving pots of money. [Pg 41] 
R for Russian.
Russia is noted for its tar, Its leather, and its great, white Czar. A Russian wears his clothes quite loose, And drinks his tea with lemon juice.
The Russian boys have chubby faces, They play at marbles and run races; The climate sometimes makes them cough, They've names like Shuffski and Poppoff. [Pg 42] 
S for Scotch.
The Scotch wear kilts—both boys and men, When they don't know, they "dinna ken." They love the thistle, we the rose, They're fond of oatmeal, kail, and brose.
In war the Scotch are very bold. Burns was a Scot, who, I am told, Wrote verses and ploughed fields by turns, So every Scot is proud of Burns. [Pg 45] 
T for Tyrolean.
The Tyrol has a splendid air And mountains, mountains everywhere; The mountains are all tops and sides, You climb them best with ropes and guides.
The Tyrolean's hat is smart, He yodels and is light of heart; His yodelling is very sweet; His stockings haven't any feet. [Pg 46] 
U for United States.
The States are full of mush and pie And houses twenty stories high, Saw-mills and millionaires and bustle; The people there "have got to hustle."
The business of the States is done Ex-clu-sive-ly by telephone; And that is why the people say, "I guess we're 'cute in U. S. A." [Pg 49] 
V for Valencian.
Valencia's a little town In Spain. It's dusty and baked brown, And full of dirt and mules and fleas, And all around are orange trees.
This well-fed boy, as you may see, Has been dressed very carefully; His garments show that he's a Don, He knows that he has got them on. [Pg 50] 
W for Welshman.
Taffy, my boy, I've heard with grief That shocking tale about the beef; But Taffy, between me and you, I really don't believe it's true.
I'm told that there are pretty vales And hills with sheep on them in Wales; O Taffy, Taffy, don't be put on, You can't want beef while you've Welsh mutton. [Pg 53] 
Z for Zany.
A zany is a kind of clown Who wanders idly up and down, And wags his head, and shakes his bells, And chortles at the tales he tells.
He'll joke with you in sun or show'r,
And keep you laughing by the hour. Some zanies are a trifle mad: Now we have finished—and I'm glad. T. W. H. C.

1.F.
1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
your equipment.
1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGE.
1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
opportunities to fix the problem.
1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,

harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit http://pglaf.org
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works.
Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
http://www.gutenberg.org
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
