THE DAWN OF PEACE.
i Put off, put off your mail, 0 Kings, __| I And beat your brands to dust! I I Your hands must learn a surer grasp, f i Your hearts a better trust. I 5 5 1 Oh, bend aback the lance's point, | | And break the hvlmet bar! = 1 A noise is in the morning wind, | I But not the note of tuar. § I I I Upon the grassy mountain, § I The glittering hosts increase; § 1 They come! They come! How fair their feetf | | They come who publish peace. I I And victory, fair victory, , | i Our enemies are ours! t | | For all the clouds are clasped in li{jht, i | And all the earth with flowers. 1 | —From Jim Middleton, D.M.8.G., Buckland (ago II). §
