but short time later that the sec

field hospital arrived at 8 O'Clock.
AS fast as the artillery trains were
relieved of the troops the equipment

unloading of the guns. baggage and
horses. The troops marched from
the detraining point to the artillery
camp, which is about two miles dis

Our little gardens, God,
Dug in the comely sod,
And mapped in the towns air,
Take to Thy gracious care.
Unlock the stored rain,
Again, and yet again;
The gold of wealthy sun,
Heap on them everyone.
Send down Thy cherubim,
Thy flaming seraphim,
To guard the sacred earth
From trespass and from dearth.
They grow for lighting men,
That march by croft and red.
To high adventurings,
To rid the world of kings.
For old and quiet towns:
For graves out on the downs;
For virgins flower-rare;
For good men everywhere
Thou hast Thy gardens afar.
In heaven. So fair they are.
So lovely is the air.
Some would that they were there
Make these as fair again;
At cool of evening, then,
When hushed the day-long din,
Come down and walk therein.
