We in the West are not so logical. We do not punish the tutor for the pupil's misdeeds, and, on the other hand, those of us who escape the gallows are apt to forget to what extent our escape is due to the men who educated us. I wonder how many of the thousands of ' Old Blues ' who have passed through your class-room realise how great is the debt they owe you. Most of us knew you first as the dread Pluto of the Detention School. Without the care that in that capacity you lavished on us we should probably all be worse men than we are. That point of view, however, did not occur to us at the time, and it was not until in fear and dread we entered your class-room that we began to learn to love you. When we first came to you, not as defaulters but as pupils, we believed that the science of Geography consisted of nothing more than an endless string of meaningless and unpronounceable names. You taught us that the world was a very wonderful and fascinating place, and made us yearn for the time when we should be able to go forth and have a look at it for ourselves. DEDICATION We came to you holding the belief that the science of History was nothing more than ' William-the-Conqueror-ten-sixty-six- William-the- Second-ten-eighty-seven,' multipHed by dreariness to an indefinite degree. Under the magic of your wand we saw Norman knight and Saxon footman fight to the death on Senlac Hill ; we heard the thunder of Spanish guns echo along the Sussex shore ; we mingled with the crowd in Whitehall, and, with a clearer focus than our forefathers could have used, saw how much there was of good and how much of base both in the king who died there and in the men who killed him. You taught us directly the measure of the privileges and responsibilities bequeathed to us by those who lived and fought and died for England. Indirectly you taught us that know- ledge has a value more precious than its power to win marks in school and money in after life. Soon after I began work on this book, I re-read the lines, addressed by Rudyard Kipling to one of his former masters : ' ' Let us now praise famous men — Afen of little showing— For their work continueth. And their work continueth. Broad and deep continueth, Greater than their knowing ! The words immediately called you to my mind. For that reason I dedicate this book to you, not in payment of the debt I owe you— I have not wealth enough for that—but in acknowledgment of it. RALPH DURAND. vf INTRODUCTION This book is offered to the public in the hope that it will prove of service to those to whom Mr, Rudyard Kipling's poems are a constant source of delight. Rudyard Kipling has made Extended observation of the ways and works of man, From the Four-mile Radius roughly to the plains of Hindustan, with excursions into prehistoric times, ships' engine- rooms, Freemasonry, and other subjects. His poems consequently abound in precise technicalities, archaic words, and slang expressions enough to justify a glossary of the terms that he uses. An engineer does not need to refer to a dictionary for a definition of the understands what exactly word slip ; a soldier perhaps are slingers; a Biblical student may know all that is now guessed as to the whereabouts oi Javan, and a classical scholar needs no information as to the difference between a thranite and a thalamite. But the general reader who wishes to understand these terms must search for them in dictionaries and other works of reference, and may possibly find his search fruitless. When doubt arose as to whether expressions VII INTRODUCTION were too well known to need explanation, it was decided, for the benefit of the foreign reader, to err on the side of giving too much rather than too little information. A mere glossary of the obscure expressions which he uses would, however, leave the student of Rudyard Kipling's poems but half satisfied. For this reason no apology is needed for embodying in this book short biographical notices, such as those on ' Eddi of Man- hood End,' on ' Gholam Hyder, the Red Chief,' and on ' her that fell at Simon's Town in service on our foes,' or for including references to the rite of johar, the myth concerning ' Upsaras,' or the original propounder of the question ' Is not Calno like Carchemish?' And this book would certainly be incomplete without an explanation of the personal interest that attaches to ' The Rhyme of the Three Captains.' My notes follow the order of the poems as they appear in the various volumes in which they have been collected, from Departmental Ditties to Songs from Books. The last pages are devoted to a few poems that appeared originally in Mr. Kipling's prose works but have not yet been collected into volume form. An alphabetical list of titles and a general index will be found at the end of the volume.

Acknowledgements I owe debts of gratitude to many people. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor John Thieme, whose dedication to my project coupled with his unfailing energy and tireless perseverance would have, I am certain, surprised even Kipling. John took over the project during the latter stages of my PhD and I am sincerely grateful for his unending enthusiasm and willingness to read, consider and constructively comment on my numerous drafts. I would also like to acknowledge The Kipling Society, both for its electronic research tool, ‘The Reader’s Guide’ and its warm human contact. Many thanks are due to, in particular, John Walker, David Page, John Radcliffe and John Lambert who replied to my frequent questions, large and small, about Kipling’s life and art with grace, good humour and speedy efficiency.

H. VA PREFACE In the course of an attempt to trace the history of the Short- Story in English it came to seem desirable, three or four years ago, to examine with some thoroughness, as the terminus ad quern, the work of Rudyard Kipling. The results of this study were rather fully set forth in the form of notes intended for class-room lectures. Revision and publication of these notes was advised by Professor Bliss Perry of Harvard College and by Professor Charles Mills Gayley of the University of Califor- nia. To these good friends of the writer this little book owes its being. Without their criticisms and suggestions, moreover, it would have been even less worthy than it is of the author with whom it is concerned. To him, to Mr. Kipling himself, thanks are due for gracious permission to take from his works the many illustrative passages with which these pages are adorned.

  • HERE, MY SON Rudyard Kipling and the Battle of Loos
    THIS IS THE CHAPEL: HERE, MY SON Rudyard Kipling and the Battle of Loos Dedicated to the Memory of Patrick Neafsy of Achadh Mór, Private 6534, 2nd Battalion Irish Guards, killed in action, 27 September 1915 Edward Neafcy, October 2008 After 93 years, my brother David has brought home to Mayo the story of Patrick Neafsy and his short life as a British soldier. He was in the 2nd Irish Guards. The Battle of Loos was fought from the 25 September to the 8 October, 1915. It was the biggest battle in British history up to then. Today if people know of it at all, it is generally because Rudyard Kipling’s son John was lost there. He was an officer in the Irish Guards. Patrick and John Kipling died in the same action. Patrick and John were among 32 Irish Guards who died on 27 September 1915 on a flat Flanders field exposed to German artillery, machine gun and rifle fire. Such was the slaughter that the Germans called it the Leichenfeld (Corpses Field) von Loos. Despite Remembrance Day having been so well observed in my lifetime, I had not been motivated to think too much about the Great War with its apparent senselessness. David’s and my trip to Loos made me wonder about the motivations of lads such as Patrick who responded to Kitchener’s ‘Your Country Needs You’ recruitment campaign, and the motivation of such a man as 1 Kipling deliversRudyard a recrui Kipting ling to support the war. The thoughts of the private soldiers are speech - Southporseldot, mLanc recoashire,rded – particularly as personal diaries were discouraged as they England.
