Even in tunnels (this is past a joke)
Thou car'st no rap
Nor, as a decent man would, pull'st the strap,
But lett'st the carriage fill with smoke
Till all but thou must choke.
Why art thou anti-social thus,
Why dost thou differ so from us?
Thou pig! thou hippopotamus!
I don't pretend to be satisfied with these lines. They are not strong, not complete. Mr. Joynson-Hicks would have done it more fittingly. Still they might do a little good somewhere, and every little helps.
