Impressions of Feldkirch on a New Boy
After "The Buckingham dragoon"
When the play ground I first had beheld-held
With slobbering foreigners full.
I thought "what a strange place is Feld-Feld
The glorious Feld-kirchian school.
I saw them all in the house then-then,
And each of them wearing a hat.
They're a strange set, I thought, in the pen-pen
The Feldkirchian pen-sionât
Each German I met was a tell-tell
a telltale or else was a fool.
They are rum ones, I thought, in the Fel-Fel
The famous Fel-kirchian school.
A chap, just as big as most men-men,
Turned out a most terrible brat.
And the brats were all men in the pen-pen
The Feldkirchian pen-sionât.
But I'll sell you no more of the foll-foll,
The folly they always are at.
You may see it yourselves in this coll-coll
This college or pen-sionât.
