Eh? "Inefficient," Mr. BULL, "and not prepared for war?"

That judgment, if 'tis near the truth, on patriot souls must jar.

And Mr. Punch (Umpire-in-Chief) to JOHN (Paymaster), cries,

"You'll have to test the truth of this before the need arise

For our lads away to go.

With a rally, rally-ho!" &c

And since that Soldier's incomplete for Duty unprepared,

Although he's game to dare the worst that ever Briton dared,

To supplement our trooper's skill in saddle, pluck and dash,

You must have more manoeuvres, JOHN, and—if needs be,—more cash!
