"The Stew"
By Joseph Alger, Jr.

I surely never hope to view A steak as luscious as a stew. The latter is the tasty goal Of elements in perfect whole. A mad assemblage of legumes Exuding warm ambrosial fumes, Each seasoning of proper length, Proving in Union there is Strength. A steak is grander, it is true, Yet needs no special skill to brew. It is an art a stew to make, But any one can broil a steak.
