Right through the throng-packed city, streets where folk, Brooding their peril, welcomed with a roar The sight of ready arms, our column went, Heartened by greeting, helped by food and drink, But most by that glad cry of those who hailed Our sheltering might as safety. Ye who Ve seen Mothers who clutched their babes to breast in fear Of the on-coming foe know ill of war Worse than the red field sends, for there are men With man s heart for the trial. On we go From miles of town to other miles o...f fields. T is midnight now, and up the waning moon Rides in far silence that mocks stir of war On this bewildered earth. So it has looked The ages down upon a myriad ways, When men have worn their hearts out in the march To smite or save, as it would tell to Heaven : This warring is the moment ; all that stays Is God s enduring peace. " Now we are come To the appointed place, where from a hill Broad, gently sloping, deep, the road sinks down Into a noble vale. On either side Are villas set in gardens, on the left A mansion with a lawn that stretches far A glacis for the guns.
