Rh Same tumble-down on the same 'idden farm,

Same white-eyed Kaffir 'oo gives the alarm

Of the section, etc.

Same shootin' wild at the end o' the night,

Same flyin' tackle an' same messy fight

By the section, etc.

Same ugly 'iccup an' same 'orrid squeal,

When it's too dark to see an' it's too late to feel

In the section, etc.

(Same batch of prisoners, 'airy an' still,

Watchin' their comrades bolt over the 'ill

From the section, etc.)

Same chilly glare in the eye of the sun

As 'e gets up displeasured to see what was done

By the section, etc.

Same splash o' pink on the stoep or the kraal,

An' the same quiet face which 'as finished with all

In the section, the pompom, an' six 'undred men.
