At the place where jewels abound

Fifteen rows down to the ground

In the middle of twenty-one

From end to end

Only three stand watch

As the sound of friends

Fills the afternoon hours

Here is a sovereign people

Who build palaces to shelter

Their heads for a night!

Quote from Domingo Sarmiento referring

to the St. Charles Exchange hotel in New

Orleans

Gnomes admire

Fays delight

The namesakes meeting

Near this site.
