Cogidubnus, a Proud Briton, Fishbourne, West Sussex

Written 20 years ago for my children, after a visit to Fishbourne Palace. Any merit it has is purely sentimental. To the tune of "Oh my name is Macnamara - I'm the leader of the band".


O my name is Cogidubnus. I'm the leader of the Celts,
An I'm a more important Celt than anybody else.
My palace is the largest and the finest in the road,
And when the Governor comes to tea I'm the proudest man in woad.
