The Braggart
written by Rudyard Kipling
First published in The Muse among the Motors (1904). Link to further information




                                           Mat. Prior.

Petrolio, vaunting his Mercedes' power,
Vows she can cover eighty miles an hour.
I tried the car of old and know she can.
But dare he ever make her? Ask his man!
