The Charge of the Drink Brigade.

Through the land, through the land,
Many leagues onward,
Into the valley OF death,
Marched not six hundred,
Thousands took up their cry
Theirs not to reason why,
Their. but to make reply;
Yesl we will drink and die,
Into the valley of death
Marched many a hundred.
Ruin TO the right of them,
Ruin to the left of them,
Ruin in front Of them,
From all good sundered.
Not in the field they fell,
Fighting life's battle well,
But in the jaws of death,
Up to the mouth of hell
Marched many hundred.
See all the husbands there,
And well their eyeballs glare,
Pity those children fair,
Hear their cries rend the air
While the world wondered.
See, too, those wretched wives,
Once good and pure their lives;
Now each like demon strives
Into those poisoned hives,
Still TO march onward.
Honor the good and brave,
Who from drunkard's grave
Those weak ones tried TO save,
To death marching onward.
Many home shall tell
How long they sought, and well,
To save from death and hell
More than six hundred.
