266 THE CAMBRIDGE BOAT OF i860 But oh for the tongue of a Dizzy or Cairns, Thou fairest and strongest of Trinity bairns, To tell how your fellow-collegians in vain Of the veal and the Peterhouse pudding complain.
Of the greasy old waiters, and rotten old corks.
And the horrors that lurk 'twixt the prongs of the forks.
Men point to your muscles, and sinews, and thews, sir.
The wonder and envy of many a bruiser ; And say that our grumbling exceeds all belief.
So well have you thriven on Trinity b...eef^ But how shall I worthily celebrate you The hope of our colours, the joy of our crew ? Shall I sing of your pluck, or the swing of your back. Or your fierce slashing spurt, most redoubtable Jack r The world never saw such a captain and cargo Since Jason pulled stroke in the good ship the Argo. And oh, when you pass to the mansions above, Look down on your Cambridge with pity and love ! Then, on some future day of disaster and woe, When the wash surges high, and our fortunes are low, When Oxford is rowing three feet to our two.
