When the long grey lines came flooding upon Paris in the plain,
We stood and drank of the last free air we never could taste again;
They had led us back from a lost battle, to halt we knew not where,

In swift devouring ecstasy Each toil in turn was done;
I had done lying on the lawn Three minutes after one
