UNDERNEATH THE SPREADING CHESTNUT TREE

 

Two old, retired generals

In the autumn of their years

One was a French Hussar

The other of the Grenadiers

 

One spoke of conquering Spain

The other one of India

One of conquering the hun

The Frenchman of Canada

 

The two men argued for hours

People thought them bonkers

But it was quite innocent

They were just playing conquers
