I see through these fierce hours the tide of battle ebbing and flowing across the plain which runs deeply betwixt high banks. Along this huge front there are varying fortunes, though / everywhere the same zeal and fury of conflict. I see tremendous doings on these rough, newly-made bridges in the region of Noyon, of Vie-sur- | Alene and of Soissons. I know of the heroic work against these great; lines, a work that will live with the most momentous of this struggle. Soon on these green river banks and across these wooded plains the Huns will make their great stand, a stand that, if they are defeated, will be their last in France.
