Cholera and our dear friends the Danes

(I’ll only venture the first and last couplets that accompany this image.)
Mr. Sörensen! I have blocked the road for you.
You must not bring cholera to me.
…………
Yes, dear captain, turn on your engine
and sail so the sea trolls get the cholera!
(Fäderneslandet, Stockholm, 1892)
