Why The Romano - Cartheginian Wars Were Called 'Punic' Poem by John Bliven Morin

Why The Romano - Cartheginian Wars Were Called 'Punic'



Hannibal of Carthage
Makes fun where e'er he goes
He laughs that Rome is silly
'As every Roman knows.'

This awful pun on the Roman nose
So angered Roman shores
They went to war with Carthage
And called it the Punic Wars.
