The English Goddess "English is the milk of a lioness, only those who drink it will roar." -BR Ambedkar
Rule of Peshwa is gone/Mother English has come./In such a dismal time of ours/Come Mother English, this is your hour. /It is all for the good of the poor/Manu's dead at English Mother's door. /Knowledge is poor man's refuge and shade/It's akin to comfort mother-made.
