THE MOTOR TERROR

Upon the pleasant country road

The motor-lorry runs;

Its build is huge and clumsy, and

It weighs some seven tons.

And when its cylinder backfires,

It sounds like gatling-guns!

Hark! down the village street there comes

The motor “charry bong”:

And, gracious heavens! how it hums!

’Tis tall, and broad, and long;

And see its mountain-range of seats,

Filled with a motley throng.

Old Giles, who hobbled down our street,

Now he’s in—Paradise.

A Panhard took him in the rear,

And shattered both his thighs,

They gave the chauffeur “three months’ hard”

When tried at next Assize.
