Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Our Days on the Gold Coast: In Ashanti, in the Northern Territories, and the British Sphere of Occupation in Togoland Our Days You´re not allowed to speculate In produce, mines, or lands; You know you hold the honour Of your country in your hands. Around you merchant princes frisk Like little lambs at play; You watch them make their fortunes while You live upon your pay. The tropics don´t improve your clothes, ´Tis long since they were new, Your topee´s somewhat shabby - still It´s good enough for you. The wife you love leads restless days, Her heart is always torn Between her babes in strangers´ hands Or husband left forlorn. Her letters come to cheer you, but Your bungalow seems bare. And loneliness descends on you Whene´er you enter there. The cruet props your newspaper, You read it in between The mouthfuls of your "cutleg," Lit by smoking kerosene. You read of mud that´s broadcast flung, And sore amazed you feel - The present is no time to bait The men who hold the wheel.
