Of the young nation Kipling wrote. Her hand still on her sword-hiltâ€" the spur was still on her heelâ€" She had not cast her harness of gray war-tinted steel ; High on her red-splashed charger, beautiful, hold and browned, Bright-eyed out of the battle, the young Queen rode to be crowned. And she came to the old Queen's presence, in the hall of our thousand years, In the hall of the five free nations that are peers among their peers; Royal she gave the greeting, loyal she bowed the head, Cryingâ€"“Crown me, my mother!” and the old Queen s‘oad and said:â€" “How can I crown thee further? I know whose standard fl‘es Where the clean surge takes the Leenwin or the knotched KaikOuras rise, Blond of our foes on thy bridle and speech of our friends in thy mouthâ€" How can I crown thee further, 0 Queen of the Sovereign South '2 “Let the five free nations witness! ” But the young Queen answered swift :â€" “It shall be crown of our crowning to hold our crown tor a. gift, Wherefore we come in power to beg the crown at thy hands." And the old Queen raised and kissed her, and the jealous circlet prest, Lit with her own land’s Opals, lion-hearted, alive, And the five-starred cross above them, for sign of the nations five. So it was done in the presenceâ€"in the hall of our thousand years, In the face of the. five free mittens that have no peers but their peers, And the young Queen out of the Southland kueeled down at the old Queen’s knee And asked for a mother’s blessing on the excellent years to be. And the old Queen stooped in the stillness where the jeweiltd head drooped low: “Daughter no more but sister, and doubly dauchter soâ€" Mother of many princes -and child of the child I bore, What good thing shall I wish thee that I have not wished before 3 “Shall I give thee delight in dominionâ€"rash pride of thy setting forth? Nay, we be women togetherâ€"we know what that lust is worth. Peace on thy utmost borders and strength on a road untrod? These are dealt or diminished at the secret will of God. “I have swayed troubious councilsâ€"(I am wise in terrible things) ‘ather and son and grand-on I have. known the heart of the kings. Shall I give thee my sleepless wisdom or the gift all wisdom above?
