Excerpt from To the Readers of "Chips"
Little more inaction, and again the joyous sound Of heart-reviving holloa - of trusty note of bound Of cheery horn - Of cracking briar - Will drive our cares away, As we rattle through the underwood the cubs at break of day.
And yet a little longer while - and glad November brings With it the true commencement of the glorious sport of kings The sport I've longed and waited for Since last I trotted back, In the dust of scentless April, from the blood deserving pack. Aw Qliup.
