WHEN THE MORNING
COMES WITH THE
SPRING.
By GEORGE MORRISON,
Chief Engineer of The Morning, the vessel
dispatched to rescue The Discovery in the
Antarctic Regions.
Away in the deadly stillness, cut off from the
world alone,
Held in the grasp of the Ice King at the foot of
his flaming throne,
They wait the returning daylight, they wait
for the help we'll bring,
Wearily watching the hours go by till The
Morning comes with the spring.
They bear the flag of England far over the frozen sea;
Their motto and their watchword Discovery still shall be.
They watch the stars in their courses, they watch the needle's swing,
Doing their duty, not counting its cost, till The Morning comes with the spring.
