One of my all time favorites! From the same poem. . .
If your officer's dead and the sergeants look white,
Remember it's ruin to run from a fight:
So take open order, lie down, and sit tight,
And wait for supports like a soldier.
Wait, wait, wait like a soldier . . .
So-oldier of the Queen!
If you like Kipling, I recommend a book called
Kipling Sahib.
