SIR EDWARD BRUCE HAMLEY
English general and writer
(1824 - 1893)

A moth-eaten rag on a worm-eaten pole,
  It does not look likely to stir a man's soul.
    'Tis the deeds that were done 'neath the moth-eaten rag,
      When the pole was a staff, and the rag was a flag.
      - referring to the Colors of the 43rd Monmouth Light Infantry
        [Flags]
