Bucks Buch

Bucks Buch

Sir,—This quatrain should be adjacent to Professor Buchanan's China article:—

A Water-Bison mooing in the Slough,
A Bowl of Rice, a Marxist Tract—and Thou
Beside me toiling in the Paddy Fields—
Oh, Fukien were Paradise enow!

Preserve the capitals and punctuation—they're authentic FitzGerald, so quaint.

Omar Kai-Shek.
