Stay - Who goes there?
A Friend
What friend - Whence come you?
From a dark cave beneath a ruined street.
Oh friend, where fare you;
why wouldst thou pass further?
To lay my heart down at our Mother's feet.
Whom call you Mother?
England - Nelson's; thine;
Her whom we proudly serve in life, in death -
Her do I guard, friend -
Canst thou also serve her?
Aye, when they fail her who do yet draw breath.
Who art thou,friend, then?
I was - and am No One -
No name is ours - An unknown host are we.
Pass on, brave spirit.
Oh, 'tis Christ that passes
In thee, poor soldier, who didst die for me.
