(The picture is blurry, because I took it and it was before Dawn!)
- They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
- Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
- They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
- They fell with their faces to the foe.
- They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
- Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
- At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
- We will remember them.
"Ode of Remembrance" Taken from the fourth stanza of Laurence Binyon's poem For the Fallen
from the Macedon Ranges Leader
