Feline Thoughts on Pedigree
The English, as usual not nonplussed
By foreign aristocracy, impressed
No, not at all by noble, upper crust,
Unbishoped Talleyrand, were not hard pressed
To sneer at Duc de Biron. After all,
Destesting frog and wog, Brits would snigger
At European titles. They would call
Everyone beyond Le Manche a nigger.
So never mind the fact that both these men
Were studs of some renown beyond Paris,
One of them having bedded Catherine
Of Russia (and allegedly Marie
La reine de France). So far as snooty poms
Could be concerned, these two were feral toms.
