    Cursed be the hand that fired the shot,

    Thy country’s Father slain
    By thee, thou worse than Cain!

    You can’t appreciate home till you’ve left it, money till it’s spent, your wife till she’s joined a woman’s club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town.
    —O. Henry [William Sydney Porter] (1862–1910)

    Cursed be the hand that fired the shot,
    The frenzied brain that hatched the plot,
    Thy country’s Father slain
    By thee, thou worse than Cain!
