It's all true. Anzac is reckoned a true type of that loveli- ness. The charge was made up a steep ridged hill opening upon an irregular tableland. Either flank of that hill is gently undulating low country. The thin belt of light sand fronts all. The deep wild-flower colour flung in broad splashes upon the low country of the flanks is foiled by the delicious blue that bathes the sand-strip. When the ancients gave us a picture of all this we questioned it, as perhaps painted inac- curately in th...e elation of literary composition. That is not a right inference. One attempts to describe it as it appears in 1915; but there is the danger of GLIMPSES OF ANZAC 83 being disbelieved, because the prodigal flinging of spring colour over the shores of Gallipoli utterly surpasses in richness the colour of Australia. England doubtless shows something far more like it in spring. The colour ashore is a glowing red acres of poppy waving there upon the green plains. Neither do we know the ^Egean blue in Australian waters, somehow.
