Never seen death yet, Dickie ?

Well... every so often I spit out a lyrics quiz. But I thought for a change we'd have a poetry quiz.

Disclaimer: my taste in poems runs towards the old-fashioned and I've tried to stick to poems I expect to be well-known. This quiz is drawn from things which spring immediately to my mind, which mostly means things I learned by heart when I was little. exspelunca is not barred from entering, but she is barred from winning on the grounds she has an unfair advantage, having taught me most of them :)

Where do you stand on Kenneth Horne? (Preferably not on him.)

Less familiar, but still pro. Mostly he's left me with a total inability to keep a straight face if someone introduces themselves as Julian.

I have the same problem. Though all the Sandys I know are female.
