“AS She Is Spoke” Boston Transcript
I’VE heard a half a dozen times
Folks call it Reims.
That isn’t right, though, so it seems,
Perhaps it’s Reims.
Poor city ruined now by flames—
Can it be Reims?—
That once was one of France’s gems—
More likely Reims.
I’ll get it right sometime, perchance;
I’m told it’s Reims.
