“Each in his nameless hole forever laid,

The Kultur-spreaders of the Rhineland sleep.

“For them no more the Louvain fires shall burn,

“Or strafing Zepp’lins ply their evening care;

“No Yank machine-guns shall their fire return,

“Or Anzac bayonets drive them from their lair.

“Oft did the poilu sweep them from the field,

“Their line full oft the stubborn English broke:

“How frantic did they to the doughboys yield!

“How bowed their ranks to Foch’s giant stroke!
