Post subject:  A Ballad of Hasty Retreat

There must be 50 ways to leave a battle...

<i>Drop your musket and run, son,
Ride a horse through the gorse, Morse,
Hit the river and swim, Jim,
To save life and limb!
Just panic and flee, Lee,
They won't nevermore see me,
Just the dust from my feet, Pete,
As I fleetly retreat!</i>
