AVE ATQUE SALVE.
Oh, little mighty Force that greatly led
The Arms of Britain when Reveillé called
John French's little Army, mocked and
marked
First for destruction, that triumphant held.
And dying broke the spear-point in your
heart
You bore the standard of our honour high,
So high it neared Heaven's rampart e'er
you passed.
Oh, little Force, man now the rampart
Blow
Your trumpets, falling in the Soldier Souls
Calling your Captain to your ranks again.
Beatrix Brice.
