From STEPS

Yelled Corporal Punishment at Private Reasons:
'Rebels like you have no right to enlist---
Or to exist!'
Major Considerations leered approval,
Clenching his fist,
And gave his fierce moustache a fiercer twist.
So no appeal, even to General Conscience,
Kept Private Reasons' name off the defaulter-list.
