Excerpt from Lays of Ind
His nose was purple, his cheeks were red, And so was his curly hair.
He was fat and fierce, and his Officers said It was awful to hear him swear.
Loudly he swore on parade and Oh The language he used at the Mess! When an impudent subaltern ventured a no' To Colonel de Fierie's yes.' The Colonel's spouse, she was meagre and She had spirit once, they say; But a course of bullying, week by week, Had spirited it away.
