Explore "A Code of Morals" by Rudyard Kipling on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Lest you should think this story true / I merely mention I / Evolved it lately. 'Tis a most / Unmitigated misstatement.
Now Jones had left his new-wed bride to keep his house in order, / And hied away to the Hurrum Hills above the Afghan border, / To sit on a rock with a heliograph; but ere he left he taught / His wife the working of the Code that sets the miles at naught.
