    He has no enemy, you say;
    My friend your boast is poor,
    He who hath mingled in the fray
    Of duty that the brave endure
    Must have made foes. If he has none
    Small is the work that he has done.
    He has hit no traitor on the hip;
    Has cast no cup from perjured lip;
    Has never turned the wrong to right;
    Has been a coward in the fight.
