And Foresters away "out there,"

Sons of his sons, have surely seen

A figure clad in Lincoln green

Glide by them swiftly, thin as air;

And, yarning in the creepy dark,

Have told of arrows, cloth-yard long,

Whistling before them clean and strong,

Of Huns that got them, pierced and stark;

How when their line is making good,

In charge or trench, as Sherwoods can,
