Of course Kipling was writing a long time ago so I think we can forgive him for not being 100% politically correct by modern standards. All the best, Matt Hi Gloria,

I really like you’re ending to the poem. Of course Kipling was writing a long time ago so I think we can forgive him for not being 100% politically correct by modern standards.

All the best,

Matt
