In Flanders Fields |
---|
I n Flanders Fields the poppies blow.
Between the crosses, row on row. |
W e are the Dead. Short days ago. We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, |
Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. Lieut-Col. John McCrae |
"The Cross of Sacrifice"
" The Stone of Remembrance"
A tall stone set upon an octagonal base and bearing upon its shaft a Crusader's
sword of bronze.
A great altar-like stone, having carved upon it the resounding words from the Book of Ecclesiastics:
"Their Name Liveth For Evermore"
