ABSTRACT
Learning to paint with Mrs Nishiwaki's aid He made a splendid start But put more pigment on suit and carpet (He re Lady Sansom cannot be gainsaid) Than on the canvas, which baulked his art. He rode to work on a whisky diet And had his love-play with the parlour-maid Of the somewhat sinister Swiss Minister. Ski-ing down the mountain he could not brake When nearing a precipice But God and Richard Brown were there And William didn't turn ahair.
