“Bully for you.” --The word
Bull is destined to become famous in this war. If our men did run from
Bull Run, we have now an offset in the fact that the rebels, under
Gen. Henry A. Wise, did also run from Bull's Town.
So we now have
Bull against
Bull, and the bully of
Accomac is the set-off, who set off so bravely to do what he could not accomplish.
“Bully for you.”
There was a man of Accomac,
And he was bully Wise;
He jumped into Kanawha's bush,
And scratched out both his eyes;
And, when he saw he lost his eyes,
With all his might and main,
From Kanawha he quickly flies,
To brag, and — run again.
