Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Soldiers Three and Military Tales, Vol. 1 An´ when the war began, we chased the bold Afghan, An´ we made the bloomin´ Ghazi for to flee, boys O! An´ we marched into Kabul, an´ we tuk the Balar ´Issar An´ we taught ´em to respec´ the British Soldier. Barrack Room Ballad. Mulvaney, Ortheris and Leroyd are Privates in B Company of a Line Regiment, and personal friends of mine. Collectively I think, but am not certain, they are the worst men in the regiment so far as genial blackguardism goes. They told me this story in the Umballa Refreshment Room while we were waiting for an up-train. I supplied the beer. The tale was cheap at a gallon and a half. All men know Lord Benira Trig. He is a Duke, or an Earl, or something unofficial; also a Peer; also a Globe-trotter. On all three counts, as Ortheris says, "´e didn´t deserve no consideration."
