'Based on Kipling’s famous verses and Amy Woodforde Finden’s “PAGODA OF FLOWERS,” written by EDMUND BARCLAY. “For the Temple Bells are calling, and it’s there that I would be, by the old Moulmein Pagoda, looking Eastward to the Sea,” sings the Soldier, in this original A.B.C. musical phantasy. The slow, slumbrous atmosphere of the Teak Forests, the brooding jungle, the chanting of the Buddhist monks, the tinkling of the temple bells, the sonorous choruses of the priests of Shwe Dagon, and all the romantic mystery of the East is recaptured and brought to you in song and story.'
