The sun in the heavens was beaming,
The breeze bore an odour of hay,
My flannels were spotless and gleaming,
My heart was unclouded and gay;
The ladies, all gaily apparelled,
Sat round looking on at the match,
In the tree-tops the dicky-birds carolled,
All was peace—till I bungled that catch.
My attention the magic of summer
Had lured from the game-which was wrong.
The bee (that inveterate hummer)
Was droning its favourite song.
I heard in a stupor the bowler
Emit a self-satisfied 'Ah!
The small boys who sat on the roller
Set up an expectant 'Hurrah!'
The batsman with grief from the wicket
Himself had begun to detach-
And I uttered a groan and turned sick.
It was over. I'd buttered the catch.
O, ne'er, if I live to a million,
Shall I feel such a terrible pang
From the seats on the far-off pavilion
A loud yell of ecstasy rang.
Ah, the bowler's low, querulous mutter
Points loud, unforgettable scoff!
Oh, give me my driver and putter!
Henceforward my game shall be golf.
If I'm asked to play cricket hereafter,
I am wholly determined to scratch.
Life's void of all pleasure and laughter;
I bungled the easiest catch.
