A Gentleman remained to fight—
With what result for him?
The Bear, with ill-concealed delight,
Devoured him, Limb by Limb.
Another Person turned and ran;

The Bear was faster than the Man,
And beat him by a yard.

Decisive action in the hour of need
Denotes the Hero, but does not succeed.
C stands for Cobra; when the Cobra
bites
An Indian Judge, the Judge spends restless nights.

Conveys no kind of Moral worth recalling.
