OWN the picket-guarded lane,

Rolled the comfort-laden wain,

Cheered by shouts that shook the plain,

Soldier-like and merry:

Phrases such as camps may teach,

Sabre cuts of Saxon speech,

Such as "Bully!" "Them's the peach!"

"Wade in, Sanitary!"

Right and left the caissons drew,

As the car went lumbering through,

Quick succeeding in review

Squadrons military;
