My dear Sir	A
I suppose you are having an excellent time just now	B
There are a large number of counties	C
In England and Scotland	D
And I am not acquainted with one of them	E
Wherein your bang bang	F
And puffs of smoke	G
And red faced men with dogs	H
Are not to be encountered	I
You like it	J
It is very nice	K
And really when you come to think of it	J
It is what the counties were made for	L
In the history books	M
They were wont to say	N
Of a certain Norman monarch	O
That he loved the red deer	P
As if he were their brother	A
Of you it may safely be said	Q
That you love the red grouse	R
And the brown partridge	S
As if you were a poulterer	A
You are a sportsman	T
The man who first went out with a gun	T
To shoot game	U
Probably did it on the sly	V
Had he been caught	W
He would no doubt have been regarded	X
By the sportsmen of his day	N
With the same contempt	Y
That you yourself indulge	Z
For the unprincipled blackguard Sir	A
Who shoots foxes	A2
But time and the gunsmiths	A2
Have changed all that	B2
And now you are a sportsman	T
A shooter of birds	A2
For the London market	C2
You are also a gunner	A
And you kill things	A2
Oh why do you not go	D2
And live at Gunners bury	A
Bad joke	G
Well I know it is	A2
But I assure you my dear Sir	A
That it is not half so bad as I can make them	E
When I try	V
To come now to the region	T
Of practical politics	A2
Let me explain to you right off	E2
That despite all that has been said against you	F2
By people who are mad about the Land	G2
And the Game laws	A2
And the feathered kingdom	H2
And so forth	I2
I	V
Who am always on the side of wisdom	H2
Have discovered a justification for you	F2
It is this	A2
There has been a great demand of late	J2
For really competent shots	A2
In response to that demand	G2
Mr Kipling has started a village rifle club	K2
I understand that the members thereof	L2
Are let us say five hundred in number	A
Now I put it to you Sir	A
How many sportsmen are there	A
Shooting in this beautiful country and Scotland	D
To day	N
Well we will not compute	M2
It is dangerous	A2
But you could make a fairly big rifle club out of them	E
They are all good men	N2
And of course all beautiful shots	A2
Some day	N
When the war is over	A
England may want them	E
Will they answer to the call	O2
My dear Sir	A
You have your uses	A2
Go in peace	A2
