Yep, that brought a shudder, remember having to pore over each line of that thing.

The only poem I can remember from school I learnt in history class:

http://www.poetsforum.com/forum/forum.pl?noframes;read=1704

Could not have told you who it was by, not even sure that was covered by the teacher. But I liked it and committed it to memory.

Looks like it was part of a set: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kings-Queens-England-Eleanor-Farjeon/dp/0712358501/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1378113117&sr=8-3&keywords=Eleanor+Farjeon

The difference was in history we got to enjoy the poem, not tear it apart working out why the author had used BONG, instead of CLANG.
