"And woe to the hell-hounds! Right well may they fear
A vengeance—ay, darker than war ever knew;
When Englishmen, charging, exchange the old cheer
For, 'Remember the women and babes whom they slew!'
"And terrified India shall tell to all time,
How Englishmen paid her for murder and lust;
And stained not their fame with one spot of the crime
That brought the rich splendour of Delhi to dust."
[13] Compare Shirley Brooks's couplet (1857):—
"Marry (and Don't) Come Up.
"A fellow that's single, a fine fellow's he;
But a fellow that's married's a felo de se."
