The stanzas are from a parody of Robert Southey's poem "The Old Man's Comforts and How He Gained Them", in Alice from Lewis Carroll. First published in 1799, it has been parodied but mostly forgotten and only the parody remembered.

Carroll's parody gives Father William an eccentric and great vitality misunderstood by his questioner.

The line, “allow me to sell you a couple?” suggest that father william thinks "he is more fit than the young man" (letter C), since he can't understand why Father William is much better and still on form in many things he was not supposed to be because of his age and fat body.

Strict constructionism is a way of interpreting the constitution. Constructionists only accept what is written and the way in which it was written. There is nothing beyond what is written and from his point of view, if it says that all people are equal and citizens of the United States then all people indeed, including African-Americans. For him, there is no interpretation that looks at deeper meaning, what is written is what is intended and that's why he is a strict constructionist. </span>
