In the land of the United Kingdom, Where rowing first began, University students took to the water, To race, row, and be grand. Oxford, in the late 18th century, Was where it all took flight, Brasenose and Jesus, they competed, With all their rowing might. Then came the famous boat race, In 1829, a date to remember, Oxford and Cambridge faced each other, Their rivalry burned like an ember. Universities across the land, Formed their own rowing clubs, Durham, London, and Edinburgh too, With oars and boats, they'd rub. The rowing champions of today, Are Oxford Brookes and more, Imperial College, London, and Newcastle, They dominate the rowing score. So let's cheer for the rowing crews, As they glide upon the river, University rowing, a sport so grand, A rivalry that will forever shimmer. Random page: HRET
