The Idiot Boy
written by Rudyard Kipling
A parody of "She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways" by William Wordsworth. First published in The Muse among the Motors (1904). Link to further information




                                       Wordsworth.

He wandered down the mountain-grade
     Beyond the speed assigned —
A youth whom Justice often stayed
     And generally fined.

He went alone, and none might know
     If he could drive or steer;
Now he is in the ditch, and O!
     The differential gear!
