He is an Englishman! <br />For he himself has said it, <br />And it's greatly to his credit, <br />That he is an Englishman! <br />For he might have been a Roosian, <br />A French, or Turk, or Proosian, <br />Or perhaps Itali-an! <br />But in spite of all temptations, <br />To belong to other nations, <br />He remains an Englishman! <br />Hurrah! <br />For the true-born Englishman!<br /><br />William Schwenck Gilbert<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-englishman-3/
