(Says BALLIOL's Song) "fox-hunting still is pleasantest and best."

A Briton in the saddle is a picture, and our pride,

In scarlet or in uniform at least our lads can ride.

Away, away they go,

With a tally, tally-ho!

With a tally, tally, tally, tally, tally, tally-ho!

But riding, for our Cavalry, is, after all, not all.

To lead the field, to leap a fence, to bravely face a fall,

Are well enough. And first-rate stuff from the hunting-field may come,

But something more is wanted when Bellona beats her drum,
