...
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the (1)__________ of England
And I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical
I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical
I understand equations, (2)________ the simple and quadratical
About (3)________________ theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news
(Hmm, lot of news.... Got it!)
With many cheerful facts
About the square of the hypotenuse
...
I'm very good at (4)________________ and differential calculus
I know the scientific names of (5)____________ animalculous
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a (6)____________ Major-General
...
I know our (7)____________ history
King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's
I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox
I quote in elegiacs all the (8)____________ of Heliogabalus
In (9)____________ I can floor peculiarities parabolous
I can (10)________ undoubted
Raphaels from Gerard (11)________ and Zoffanies
I know the (12)________________ chorus
From The (13)__________ 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 (14)________________ nonsense Pinafore
...
Then I can write a (15)______________ bill in (16)__________________ cuneiform
And tell you every detail 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
When such affairs as sorties
And surprises I'm more wary at
And when I know precisely
What is meant by "commissariat"
When I have learnt
What progress has been made in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy
(Oh, that's a hard one, strategy... Got it!)
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a-gee
...
For my military knowledge
Though I'm plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down
To the beginning of the century
But still, in (17)______________ vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
...
(One more time?!)
