The Three S’s
From The Laughing Willow (1918)
History & Politics
Without a doubt the Samovar
The Steppes and Russian Sables are
Of all things Russian the best known;
So in this picture I have shown
A Sable sitting on a flight
Of Russian Steppes, before a bright
New Samovar, calm as can be,
Brewing a cup of Russian Tea.
