Rum tiddy, &c.

Clear case of the Wolf and the Lamb!

Said the Wolf, "I dislike, and distrust him.

His innocence is but a sham.

I mean having the bleed of him, bust him!"

(Such language sounds vulgar and coarse,

And to put it in poesy's painful;

But KIPLING will tell you that force

Of taste must be sometimes disdainful.)

Rum tiddy, &c.
