ENGLAND
Oh England, lie gently in this heart of mine
And etch upon my
soul,
The memory of your name and face,
That I may yet be whole.
Oh Kings and
Queens of ancient York,
And London's by gone years,
Know this of me,
tis
you will be,
Forever in my tears.

FRANCE
I'm learning you
France, learning you like a lover bit by bit,
building
slowly, a Bach fugue unfolding pleasure, sacred landscape to be
explored.
This night is heaven, yet what's this weight I feel, surely the burden
of all history gone before.

black, red and gold German flag was unfurled, and fluttered in the cold
night air. Ein Prosit, ein Prosit, Der Gemütlichkeit. A toast, a toast,
to happiness.
