Great Regulars: [Hilaire Belloc's] humorous poems about

Matilda, who lied repeatedly and was burned to death; Jim, who was eaten by a lion after running away from his nurse; and Lord Lundy, whose inability to stop crying ended his political career, make the poet live up to his name. Hilare-ious.

We've chosen an arguably lesser known work from a selection of monthly sonnets. It's called February. Enjoy.
