He has a long and elastic Patience, like none you&rsquo;ve seen.</p> <p>Say those up top get a whim To slap a tax on trousers — The Ukrainian&rsquo;s patience won&rsquo;t snap, Pull it for three hundred years.</p> <p>Or the gang leads him astray: Invites him to a bank — it&rsquo;s a brothel. The Ukrainian will fetch his patience, Sigh — and step on the rake again&hellip;</p>
