  • Text: Dans une tranchée, une compagnie d'infanterie Anglaise vient remplacer celle qui fait le coup de feu. / Sous une trombe de fer, les admirables fantassins anglais , avec leur / flegme preverbial, préparent leur 'FIVE OCLOCK TEA'. Imperturbablement un joueur de cornemuse écossais souffle dans son instrument / des refrains du pays natal. C'est avec cet entrain, ce merveilleux courage que les soldats de général FRENCH / sont allés au feu des memorable journées du 17 au 26 Septembre 1914. / TOUJOURS EN AVANT! Telle est la méthode et la tenacité des enfants de la noble Angleterre
