Cooed like a pigeon Pressed you
This William had a God he called his peer, And yet must needs take on a new religion; Spoke well of Allah ; in His Shadow's ear Cooed like a pigeon; Pressed you to join him in a Holy War; Advanced the wherewithal you badly needed; And taught you how to go for Christian gore The same as he did.
— from Punch, or The London Charivari, Vol. 150, April 19, 1916 by Various
