Some talk of Alexander, and some of Pericles,
Of Hector and Lysander, and such old guys as these;
But of all the horrid objects, the "wust" I do declare,
Is the Prusso-Russo-Belgo-Gallo-British Grenadier.
"The Reserve Forces."
Militia Officer. "Augh!—a new man. Ah—'ve you been in 'service before?"
Recruit. "Yes, sir."
