Let's make bally asses of
ourselves!
Kipling - Poems
M.
(Critically, walking round.
) M'--yes, you'll do.
Only don't
look so like a criminal. Ring, gloves, fees--that's all right for me.
Let your moustache alone. Now, if the ponies are ready, we'll go.
Capt. G. (Nervously. ) It's much too soon. Let's light up! Let's have a
peg! Let's--
Capt. M.
Let's make bally asses of ourselves!
BELLS. (Without. )--"Good-peo-ple-all To prayers-we call. "
Capt. M. There go the bells! Come on--unless you'd rather not. (They
ride off. )
BELLS. --"We honor the King And Brides joy do bring--Good tidings we
tell, And ring the Dead's knell. "
Capt. G. (Dismounting at the door of the Church. ) I say, aren't we much
too soon? There are no end of people inside.
