i8 THE PENITENT 19 But only the good God in Heaven knows The wayward way that a soldier goes, And He must ha' left me to walk by my- sel' — For three times I've fell, since Noove Chapelle.
Once at Bethune and twice at Est aires.
The divil gripped hould o' me unawares — Yet often and often I've prayed me prayers, Since I prayed by mysel', at Noove Chapelle.
Well, the Lord above, who fashioned the French, May bethink how bewitchin' is wine and a wench To a chap that's been tied for three weeks to
... a trench.
Around Noove Chapelle — that black border o' Hell.
20 BALLADS OF BATTLE And me throat was dry and the night was damp, And the rum was raw — and red was the lamp ! — And — Billy, me boy, ye'r a bit o' a scamp, That's the truth to tell — tho' I sez it mysel'.
What's worritin' me isn't fear that they'll miss Me out o' the ranks in the realms o' bliss ; It ain't hope o' Heaven, nor horror o' Hell, But just breakin' the promise, 'twixt God and mysel'.
Made at Noove Chapelle.
Well, there's always a way that is open to men When they gets the knock-out — that's get up again ; And, sure now, ould Satan ain't yet counted ten !
