IMITATED FROM WORDSWORTH

He brought a team from Inversnaid

To play our Third Fifteen,

A man whom none of us had played

And very few had seen.

He weighed not less than eighteen stone,

And to a practised eye

He seemed as little fit to run

As he was fit to fly.

He looked so clumsy and so slow,

And made so little fuss;

But he got in behind — and oh,

The difference to us!
