[Page 21]
untill their painful breath at last began to fail
Upon there way to death let pity draw the veil
They would not mind the blow but cut of sound & sight
Of comrades [indecipherable] fire they passed to endless night
Deep down on Oceans floor far from the wind & sun
They rest for ever more. Goodbye to AEI.
No 3
A harder fate was theirs than mens who fight & die
But still Australia care & will not pass them by.
When. Honors lists are read there names will surley be
Among the gallant dead who fought to keep us free
There winding sheet is that there Sepulchre is wide
The sea birds scream and wheel when silently they die
There is a monument of History began.
When down to death they went Goodbye AEI
The End
