To C. H. CRIPPS
FRIEND AND KINSMAN.
Epigraph
Grace me these veld spoils rude with name of thine!
Mine’s been the luck not thine these long years now
To tread the veld. What other use had’st thou,
Hunter and Horseman, made of chances mine!
Nor horns nor heads have I to give to thee,
Yet spoils of sorts veld spoils I bring with me.
A. S. C.
