. .
    The shot-wound festered -- as shot-wounds may In a steaming barrack at Mandalay.
    The left arm throbbed, and the Captain swore, "I'd like to be after the Boh once more!" The fever held him -- the Captain said, "I'd give a hundred to look at his head!" The Hospital punkahs creaked and whirred, But Babu Harendra (Gomashta) heard.
    He thought of the cane-brake, green and dank, That girdled his home by the Dacca tank.
    He thought of his wife and his High School son, He thought -- b...ut abandoned the thought -- of a gun.
    His sleep was broken by visions dread Of a shining Boh with a silver head.
    He kept his counsel and went his way, And swindled the cartmen of half their pay.
    . . . . .
    And the months went on, as the worst must do, And the Boh returned to the raid anew.
    But the Captain had quitted the long-drawn strife, And in far Simoorie had taken a wife.
