Social Commentaries
Stephen J. Field
From Shapes of Clay (1903)
Social Commentaries
Here sleeps one of the greatest students
Of jurisprudence.
Nature endowed him with the gift
Of the juristhrift.
All points of law alike he threw
The dice to settle.
Those honest cubes were loaded true
With railway metal.
