An antique coloured lithograph after woodblock prints by William Nicholson from "An Almanac of Twelve Sports. Words by Rudyard Kipling."
Certes it is a noble sport
And men have quitted selle and swum for’t.
But I am of a weaker sort
And I prefer Surtees in comfort.
Reach down my Handley Cross again,
My run, where never danger lurks, is
With Jorrocks and his deathless train
Pigg, Binjamin and Artaxerxes!
