REMEMBRANCE.
Away on the ghores .of..'a i .faiypff land, There lies a mound Of v earth. But, ohi 'tis the grave of -my i&oldier lad, Far from the land of his birth. Away from the home qf the fern tree, And ,. the song of the bell-bird dear, but I^o lives m the hearts of those he loved, ' And to me, he is always near. And, bere m the land of the kauri, I wait, and the days are long. But he rests ■with the heroes of many lands, Far from the tui'6 song. — G.E.S. Gisborns, I9tt .
