Rudyard Kipling - The Ubique
Work rating: Low

There is a word you often see, pronounce it as you may - 
`You bike,` `you bikwe,` `ubbikwe` - alludin` to R.A. 
It serves `Orse, Field, an` Garrison as motto for a crest, 
An` when you`ve found out all it means I`ll tell you `alf the rest. 

Ubique means the long-range Krupp be`ind the low-range `ill - 
Ubique means you`ll pick it up an`, while you do stand, still. 
Ubique means you`ve caught the flash an` timed it by the sound. 
Ubique means five gunners` `ash before you`ve loosed a round. 


Ubique means Blue Fuse1, an` make the `ole to sink the trail. 1extreme range 
Ubique means stand up an` take the Mauser`s `alf-mile `ail. 
Ubique means the crazy team not God nor man can `old. 
Ubique means that `orse`s scream which turns your innards cold. 


Ubique means `Bank, `Olborn, Bank - a penny all the way - 
The soothin` jingle-bump-an`-clank from day to peaceful day. 
Ubique means `They`ve caught De Wet, an` now we sha`n`t be long.` 
Ubique means `I much regret, the beggar`s going strong!` 


Ubique means the tearin` drift where, breech-blocks jammed with mud, 
The khaki muzzles duck an` lift across the khaki flood. 
Ubique means the dancing plain that changes rocks to Boers. 
Ubique means the mirage again an` shellin` all outdoors. 


Ubique means `Entrain at once for Grootdefeatfontein`! 
Ubique means `Off-load your guns` - at midnight in the rain! 
Ubique means `More mounted men. Return all guns to store.` 
Ubique means the R.A.M.R. Infantillery Corps! 

Ubique means the warnin` grunt the perished linesman knows, 
When o`er `is strung an` sufferin` front the shrapnel sprays `is foes, 
An` as their firin` dies away the `usky whisper runs 
From lips that `aven`t drunk all day: `The Guns! Thank Gawd, the Guns!` 


Extreme, depressed, point-blank or short, end-first or any`ow, 
From Colesberg Kop to Quagga`s Poort - from Ninety-Nine till now -
