Text Appearing Before Image:
34- ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND It was the Southern victory of Bull Run and theNorthern policy of blockade that finally and de-finitely changed the attitude of England and ofPunch. The victory gave hopes that the Con-federates might be successful in overturning, ahated and dreaded republic; the blockade arousedfears that the pocket of the British manufacturermight be damaged. All pretence of love for thenegro was swallowed up by these more potent andmore personal emotions. On November 2, 1801, in a cartoon and anaccompanying poem Punch, sought to put its com-mercial anxiety on an altruistic plane. Hereis the poem: KING COTTON BOUND; OR, THE NEWPROMETHEUS. Far across Atlantic waters Groans in chains a Giant King; Like to him, whom Oceans daughtersWail around in mournful ring. In the grand old Grecian strains Of Prometheus in his chains! Needs but Fancys pencil pliantBoth to paint till both agree; THE LONDON PUNCH 85 rUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI —December 7, 1861. I my.
Text Appearing After Image:
LOOK OUT FOR SQUALLS. Jack Boll. YOU DO WHATS RIGHT. MY SON. OR ILL BLOW YOU OUT OF THE WATER. 36 ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND For King Cotton is a giant, As Prometheus claimed to be.Each gave blessings unto men,Each dishonour reaped again. From the gods to sons of clay If Prometheus brought the flame, Who King Cotton can gainsay.Should he equal honour claim ? Fire and life to millions giving. That, without him, had no living. And if they are one in blessing,So in suffering they are one; Both, their captive state confessing.Freeze in frost and scorch in sun: That, upon his mountain chain, This, upon his parching plain. Nor the wild birds self is wanting— Either giants torment sore;If Prometheus writhed, while panting Heart and lungs the vulture tore,So Columbias eagle fierce.Doth King Cottons vitals pierce. On those wings so widely sweepingIn its poise the bird to keep, See, if you can see for weeping. North and South are branded deep- THE LONDON PUNCH 37
