Poem by Hilaire Belloc

The Big Baboon

The Big Baboon is found upon
The plains of Cariboo:
He goes about with nothing on
(A shocking thing to do).

But if he dressed up respectably
And let his whiskers grow,
How like this Big Baboon would be
To Mister So-and-so!

1. Is there any reward?
2. Our Lord and Our Lady
3. The Pelagian Drinking Song
4. The Rebel
5. Kings live in Palaces, and Pigs in sties
