@TeeCeeGee @killick @marcelias Jack Smith very much strikes me as a mongoose with his eye on a cobra…(yes I recently watched #RikkiTikkiTavi again..)

#December 30, 1865
#OTD Rudyard #Kipling, #English #Writer & #Poet, is born.
Here's a Garden Excerpt from #RikkiTikkiTavi:
"Rikki-tikki had a right to be proud of himself.
But he did not grow too #Proud.
And he kept that #Garden as a #Mongoose should keep it,
w/ #Tooth
& #Jump
& #Spring
& #Bite,
till never a #Cobra dared show its head inside the walls."
