Joseph Rudyard Kipling. (№ 369785)

Slightly out of the abyss was earth space
("Yes, sir - said the sapper),
The Lord God created the Engineer
Engineering her Majesty's troops
With the content and the rank of sapper.
And when there was a Flood and a fierce monsoon
Noah constructed the first pontoon
By drawing engineer
Engineering her Majesty's troops
With the content and the rank of sapper.
After working in the dampness, the burning sun,
Old Noah got drunk, which was not used to him,
If he lived among engineers
Engineering her Majesty's troops
With the content and the rank of sapper.
And when the tower of Babel was a failure,
The case was an agile civilian hands
And not in the hands of an engineer
Engineering her Majesty's troops
With the content and the rank of sapper.
And when, under the hill of the Jews was a fight,
Son Navino commanded, "Stop!"
Because he was captain
Engineering her Majesty's troops
With the content and the rank of sapper.
