-
this was his term for himself,
-
"He of the big hat."
-
And that in this war in 1896, they called him "The wolf,"
-
In awe again, his opponents.
-
"The beast that does not sleep but sneaks around at night."
-
So, he became "The wolf who never sleeps."
-
There's a slight problem with this invention of a term
-
to describe himself as "The wolf who sneaks around,"
-
is there aren't any wolves in Africa.
-
There are not any wolves at all.
-
He made it up and made it up rather badly,
-
having taken it out of some book somewhere else.
