Exercises for integrated skills
All through these dark winter months/the enemy have had the power /todrop three or four tons of bombs upon us /for each ton we could send foGermany in return./We are arranging /so that presently this will be ratherthe other way around,/but meanwhile/London and our big cities have had tostand their pounding./They remind me of the British squares at Waterloo./They are not squares of soldiers,/they do not wear scarlet coats;/they arejust ordinary English,Scottish and Welsh folk,/men,women and children,/standing steadfastly together./But their spirit is the same,/their glory is the same /and,in the end,/their victory will be greater than far-famed Waterloo.
