Pauline picked up a beautiful stone

During her day at Chesil Beach

She was a friendly girl much admired

But found love quite out of reach

 

Terence Barr was a farmers son

Who hailed from Wiltshire Deep

Handsome and strong he knew Pauline

And knew that he was hers to keep

 

But the fates conspired to create a war

And he was called up to his country serve

But the poor boy fell soon in battle

A fate that he did not deserve
