CHORUS

And thus we drink their memory

Those glorious Greeks of old,

On shore and sea the Famed and Free--

The Beautiful--the Bold!

[Footnote 3: "_Return with it or upon it_" was the well-known injunction

of a Greek mother, as she handed her son his shield previous to the

fight.]

[Footnote 4: The mummy-wheat.]
