Julius Ruddock Act 1

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Cassius:
“Why man, he doth bestride the narrow world
Like a Colossus, and we petty men
Walk under his huge legs and peep about
Like dishonourable ants beneath some parachute
That lately were the shorts of the fat ex-King Farouk.”

Notes

As you probably know, Razor Ruddock’s Swindon debut was delayed by the arrival of shorts big enough for his frame – for some reason, sufficiently substantial shorts were located in Egypt.
