Lawrence echoed the savage shout. " O mother of Christ, have pity! " shrieked the women in despair; " This is no time for praying, " cried the young Madeleine Vercheres; ' Aux armes! auxarmes! les Iroquois! quick to your arms and guns, Fight for your God and country, and the lives of the innocent ones. " And she sped like a deer of the mountain, when beagles press close behind, And the feet that would follow after must be swift as the prairie wind.

But the fawn had outstripped the hunters, and the palisades drew near, And soon from the inner gateway the war- bugle rang out clear, Gallant and clear it sounded, with never a note of despair — 'T was a soldier of France's challenge, from the young Madeleine Vercheres ! ' And this is my little garrison, my brothers Louis and Paul ? With soldiers two, and a cripple ? may the Virgin pray for us all !
