��ALBERT D. WATSON

��So the Mother of Nations has risen in might

At the word of the onward call ; She has shaken her banners forth to the light, And marched to the front of the people's fight

Like the van of a tidal wall.

��And the future shall say of her sons who died

Wherever their feet have trod With millions of comrades in arms allied ; "They cast the treasures of earth aside

And marched to the goals of God,"

— Albert D. Watson. Toronto.
