Now ‘neath the cool stars br I know thee more. br Here where the world wars br By the winding shore. br br Here by the whirling shell br I know thee most; br Here where a thousand fell br On a battered coast. br br Strong ‘mid the battle-smoke br I hold more dear br Those soft words you spoke br To a foolish ear. br br Dead, where the hill dips br I lie more wise, br Dreaming of red lips, br And crying eyes.
