Fought was this noble fray,
Which fame did not delay
To England to carry.

With such acts fill a pen,
Or England breed again
Such a King Harry?”

Legs lagged like drains, slippers soft as fungus,
The gas and grate, the old cold sour grey bed.”

The peculiar potency of the general,
To compound the imagination’s Latin with
The lingua franca et jocundissima.”
