Vexed him not, busy perfecting a smash.

Rased was his name as a decadent angel,

One more mind unhinged by a piffulent game,

One more parlour-hero, the worshipped of school-girls

Who once had a princely "plus 5" to his name.

Jennings is gone; yet perhaps he'll come back to us,

Healed of his hideous lesion of brain,

Back to the links in the daytime; at twilight

Back to his cosy club corner again.

Back for the medal day, back for our foursomes,
