204 When Noah's big monsoon was laid,

The land began to ride again,

And then the first hog-spear was made

By the hands of Tubal Cain;

The sons of Shem and many more

Came out to ride the fighting boar.

Those ancient Jew boys went like stinks,

They knew not reck nor fear,

Old Noah knocked the first two jinks,

And Nimrod got the spear.

And ever since those times of yore

True men do ride the fighting boar.
