Lilian Elkington:
This short tone poem is
the outcome of a poignant
memory connected with the war.
The equal suffering and sacrifice
of all classes in the cause of common
humanity which led to the honouring
of the Unknown Warrior have been
felt by all, and have been wellexpressed
by Laurence Binyon in the lines:

„With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
England mourns for her dead across the sea.
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.“
