Anyone looking nonplussed at this, may not know that Kipling co-invented a ritual for induction of Canadian engineers, a ceremony to mark the birth of their career and their role in society.

And this poem is part of it.

I tend to stop at "Kim" but my mother was rather fond of "Stalkey & Co" and "Puck of Pooks hill"
