Lord Canton

________________________________________________
Title:     Lord Canton
Author: Hilaire Belloc [More Titles by Belloc]

[Christopher, sixth Baron Canton]

The reason that the Present Lord Canton
Succeeded lately to his Brother John
Was that his Brother John, the elder son,
Died rather suddenly at forty-one.

The insolence of an Italian guide
Appears to be the reason that he died.

[The end]
Hilaire Belloc's poem: Lord Canton
