I am the very (1)__________ of a modern Major-General

In conics I can floor (11)__________________________ parabolous
I can tell undoubted

From The (12)__________ of Aristophanes
Then I can hum a fugue
Of which I've heard the music's din afore
(Ooh, din afore, din afore... Got it!)
And whistle all the airs
From that infernal nonsense Pinafore

Then I can write a washing bill in (13)__________________ cuneiform
And tell you every (14)____________ of Caractacus's uniform
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General

In fact
When I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin"
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a javelin

And surprises I'm (15)________ wary at
And (16)________ I know precisely
What is meant by "commissariat"
When I have learnt
What progress has been (17)________ in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a (18)____________ in a nunnery

For my military knowledge
Though I'm plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down
To the beginning of the century
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
...
