“Where the man had a mission to ease the pain
Of his brothers who fell and bled,
There a dog went out on a gas-soaked plain,
To snuffle and sniff through the mounds of the slain
For the living among the dead;
And many a mother, who knelt and prayed
At the cross for her battling son,
May ever thank God that his death was stayed
By the grit of a dog that was unafraid,
In the cause of a cross that was won.”
