| “GERMAN Retreat From Arras”— | |
| “Official Films”—they came | |
| After “Corinne and Her Minstrels” | |
| Had ministered to fame. | |

| After “Corinne and Her Minstrels” | 5 |
| Had pigeon-toed away, | |
| We saw where bits of churches | |
| And bits of horses lay. | |

| We saw bleak desolation; | |
| We saw no unscathed tree. | 10 |
| We shivered in our comfort | |
| And murmured: “Can it be!” | |
| |
| But later, walking homeward, | |
| Repeating: “Is it true?” | |
| We brushed a khaki shoulder | 15 |
| And asked no more. We knew! | |
