(In a (Snlfn (With Apologies to Virgil) That golfer am I who once drove his golf-ball From the slender yellow tee—and then issuing Forth from a bunker constrained the pill, Contrary though it might be, to seek the neighboring green, A feat deserving the praise of the gods. But now Of golf’s sterner side I sing, and that martyr Who first from the doctor’s office Came, driven by fat to golf; and the professional’s guiding hand. Much buffeted he by water-trap and fairway, By the violence of his language, and by the Wrath and memory of his cruel slice. Much Suffering too in pride, until he should reduce his handicap; And bear his score-card in triumph to the Club-house. From him arises much argument; cries of “liar!” And proud boastings behind the lofty walls of home. Oh Muse, recall to me the reasons why the incensed gods, Cause this poor fool, noted at home for his piety To undergo so great a transformation. Can the wrath of the gods be so great? —Philip Hadfield.
