All seven verses of Laurence Binyon's For the Fallen, from "With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children" to "To the end, to the end, they remain."
Binyon wrote it on the cliffs of north Cornwall in September 1914, only weeks into the war, and The Times published it that month. Its fourth verse, "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old," became the Ode of Remembrance read at services every November. The poem is set on aged paper with a sprig of rosemary, the herb for remembrance.
