Where the rich ripe ears in the harvest weather
Glow an orange gold through the sweltering heat.

And no man knows his courage till he stands before a gun.

They reckon Fuzzy-Wuzzy is the hottest fighter out.

Went sweeping on, and with his sobs and shrieks
Filled the still night, and tore the woof of clouds
Through which the moon did shed her cold clear light.

A well of scents almost too dense to breathe in.
