'they went with the song to the battle, they were young, straight of limb, true of eye, stready and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted. They fell with their faces to the foe. They Shall not grow 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'
