"Pizarro" Reviews His Army
George Wesley Bellows
1922
Plan of the Battle of Brandywine
Andrew Wyeth
1940
Plate #1 | While nodding in his hard old chair | Tom Tompkins had a dream most shocking. | The Wizard Tumblebug came there | And frightened him with laughter mocking.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #2 | Poor Tom began to whine and shake | When with his spells the Wizard bound him | And set on him a monstrous snake | Which coiled its ugly self around him.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #3 | Along with It came creatures fit | To banish sleep from any pillow; | Such horrid monsters as to wit; | This one, the Arma-daffy-dillo.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #4 | Next, twisted in a snaky coil, | Prepared some jolly trick to trump up, | As ugly as an old gargoyle, | Appeared the Duck-billed Johnny-jump up.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #5 | Another coil enclosed the frame | Of one who danced a queer fandango, | A freak that always signs her name | Like this; Ma'm'selle Oran-go-Tango.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #6 | The burly brute of vicious breed | Which follows is not hard to label. | It is the Wall-eyed Hex-a-pede | With legs from someone's parlor table.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #7 | Next with his throat within a noose | (Let's hope that it will choke him later) | Appears without the least excuse | The sanguinary Growl-i-gator.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #8 | Behind him, skipping on its toes, | (Please do not ask me where its face is) | The Polynesian Wig-wag shows | A ballet dancer's airs and graces.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #9 | And here like proud aristocrats | Whose names are always in the papers, | A pair of snoopy Dingle-bats | Indulge in their vain-glorious capers.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
Plate #10 | This weird crustacean, grinning so, | Seems careless of what may befall him. | The Corrugated Bingalo | Is what the nature fakers call him.
Royal Lacey Scoville
ca. 1915
