Toad Danby

Mayday

A Northeastener who may fight and die amongst the bravest soldiers, sailors and flyers, to save the honour, liberty and dignity of this island

May raise the common enemy of dictatorship, cruelty and poverty to the ground, to save and liberate the countries of strangers

Shall Build Bridges

A Northeastener who may be king of his castle, so long as he builds it in air

May go to the devil with his dreams, hopes and prayer

May not mine his God given land

May not build the world’s greatest ships

May not fish the North’s own sea

May not put unbegrudged bread on his children’s table

May not save himself from sorrow that’s his unbuilt tomorrow

SHALL BUILD ANGELS

 

A Northeasterner who may not have a library where his history may be read

 

Shall leave only words on cenotaphs and epitaphs when his race is pronounced dead
