Epitaph (For the unknown soldier buried in Westminster Abbey)

________________________________________________
Title:     Epitaph (For the unknown soldier buried in Westminster Abbey)
Author: Isabel Ecclestone Mackay [More Titles by Mackay]

YOU who died fighting
For me and my little children;
You who are a million
Yet are but one,
I lay upon your grave
A rose and a tear--
The tear is the world's sorrow,
The rose is your joy.







[The end]
