. . . Had I A River I Would Gladly Let All Honest Anglers That Use The Fly Cast Line In It, But, But Where There Is No Protection, Then Nets, Poison, Dynamite, Slaughter Of Fingerlings, And Unholy Baits Devastate The Fish, So That 'free Fishing' Spells No Fishing At All.

I Am The Batsman And The Bat, / I Am The Bowler And The Ball, / The Umpire, The Pavilion Cat, / The Roller, Pitch, And Stumps, And All.

I'd Leave All The Hurry, The Noise, And The Fray, For A House Full Of Books, And A Garden Of Flowers.

And Remember That The Danger Which Is Most To Be Feared Is Never The Danger We Are Most Afraid Of.
