We that were bred overseas by W. Heath Robinson. 1909. Tipped in color plate, 5 x 7 inches. Kipling's The Song of the English, p. 69. Caption on facing page:
Those that have stayed at thy knees, Mother, go call them in --
We that were bred overseas wait and would speak with our kin,
Not in thye dark do we fight -- haggle and flout and gibe;
Selling our love for a price, loaning our hearts for a bribe.
