“ His deed shall be handed down,
As long as unselfish daring
Inherits its sure renown,
The heart of the world shall carry,
Where love keepeth watch and guard,
The beautiful tale of Barry,
The hero of St. Bernard! ”

“ The dogs with their master stood,
Till each broad neck should be girded
With cordial and light and food.
Then away! every foe defying,
Their noble work to perform,
To search for the lost ones lying
Asleep in the pitiless storm. ”
