Poem ~ Greek Support of Serbia - Sunday, 26 September 1915

Source: File: Greek Army Mobilised 1915.jpg, [online] Available at: <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Greek_Army_mobilisation_1915.jpeg> Accessed: 26 September 2015].

A treaty signed 1913, had agreed

To provide Serbia aid, if attacked

From the Kingdom of Bulgaria.

Thursday 24 day of September -

Athens, the capital of Greece,

Witnessed at noon a cabinet

Meeting - in serious discussion.

The necessity was for country's

Safety - Greece had to be seen

To act - mobilising all their forces.

This critical state conveyed

By Minister Venizelos, who

Was driven by car to Tatoi,

Speaking closely to the king.

At 4 p.m. Premier Eleftherios

Venizelos with the king, stated

That Greece needed to mobilise.

That discussion was followed

By King Constantine's meeting

Minster of war, General Danglis.

This formality led into evening.

Foregone conclusion appeared

The only possible reply to attitude

Of Bulgarian process to war.

7.30 p.m. Thursday 24 September,

When Greece's King Constantine,

By signature, gave royal decree

For mobilisation of Greek army.

Later that day, 10.40 p.m. news

Reached Athens via the press

Of the Bulgarian mobilisation.

By that night's issued gazette,

The call made for all 21 to 45 

Year old men to report, within

48 hours from the publication.

Twenty classes called to their 

Colourso joined the serving four;

So Greek land forces mobilised.

The final decision appeared

On posters, placed in windows

Of newspaper office's whose

Effect stirred Athens streets.

Away from homeland, a Greek

Colony in London welcomed

News by enthusiastic words.

One man connected to politics

Of his homeland, in statement

To say element of pro-Germany

Still remained in his country.

The presence of those people
Though was overshadowed by

Eleftherios Venizelos' party.
