Charity, without the sticky parts

Article Tools

Oh, how I love Humanity,

With love so pure and pringlish,

And how I hate the horrid French,

Who never will be English! 

The International Idea,

The largest and the clearest,

Is welding all the nations now,

Except the one that's nearest. 

This compromise has long been known,

This scheme of partial pardons,

In ethical societies

And small suburban gardens— 

The villas and the chapels where

I learned with little labour

The way to love my fellow-man

And hate my next-door neighbour

  From 'The World State' by Gilbert Keith Chesterton
