At the ball given at Manchester, England. to the officers and nom
officers of the United States Marines, the welcoming adj
dress by Field Marshal Haig was followed by these lines recfed by
Rudyard Kiplng:
The day was far spent, like our men. We had sent
For support, but had waited in vain.
The gray line of fire rolled higher, and higher,
Then .waveTed and ebbed back again.
But we knew if the night should shut down on the fight
We should lose every trench-every pit;
So we lost heart at last when our colonel went past
On a stretcher. white-faced and hardhH.
Just then from the rear came a weird, yappng cheer,
High over u rapid-fres hum,
And up went OUR shout as our major shrRked out:
"Sit tight. 1ads-the Yankees have comet"
And they came as at Dover the breakers surge over
The cliffs, and they smothered the Hun.
Then-we dropped asleep kneehng-and standng-all feeling
The job out in front was well done.
They are round us tonight in the bathrooms bright light,
Mid the waltzs soft surges and foam,
Though the hands are now hid in immaculate kid
That once drove the bayonet home.
But we know till are furled the war-fags of the world
What the cult of blood brotherhood means
That their Liberys light will eer flash through the night:
SIT TIGHT-TIL I SEND MY MARINEs!"
