This Is The Hunters Badge Of Glory ,
That He Protect And Tend His Quarry
And Hunt With Honor As Is Due ,
And Through The Beast To The Lord Be True .

Yet Love For Game Fires Our Gun .
Therefore Ponder Your Daily Bread ,
Did Your Game Not Suffer Dread ?
Guard Game From Man And Beast Alike ,
Make Brief It's Death, Make Sure Your Strike
Be Outside Rough Yet Mild Inside
And The Badge Of Glory Pure Abide!

you yourself die;
