When a few months ago on the Thames with the oar
The 'Varsities met in a contest of strength,
7 to 2 were the odds that the Dark Blues would score
A win, which they did--by a lucky _half-length_:
And last week, when the thousands assembled at Lord's
To see Cambridge win by an innings--at Cricket's
Great luck they're astonished, as Fortune awards
The Light Blues the game--by a _couple of wickets_!
