WHAT WE WON?
Was it for thie, I want to know,
We saw our laws to Flanders go ;
For this that laelgiurn suffered so,
That France withstood the ruthless foe,
And said, "no further shalt thou go;"
That Serbia was plunged in woe,
And women wept along the Po;
That Poles were heeled to and fro,
And Anzacs died at Gallipo ;
That Britain let her plane all go,
Laid bare her breast, and took the blow,
And held the seas 'neath sun and snow,
Danger above, and death below;
That Uncle Sam, though rather slow
To scrap the doctrine ofMunroe,
Got busy at the final show?
Four years of blood and tears, although
We boast the kaiser's overthrow,
The net results seems this, I trow.
That profiteers pile up the dough,
And gather where they did not sow,
That scythe e of death fresh harvests
s
mow,
Where Bolehevists fierce whiskers grow,
And no Hun, yet has eaten crow;
That wild Sinn Feiner% fallen low,
Plan Proud Britannia's overthrow
Save this the world can little show,
But wooden crosses, row on row.
In Flanders fields, where poppies blow.
