    God and a soldier all people adore
    In time of war, but not before;
    And when war is over and all things are righted,
    God is neglected and an old soldier slighted.

hinder end of the spear smote him under the fifth rib, that the

the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the
place when Asahel fell down and died stood still.

I have seen men march to the wars, and then

And read more

I have seen men march to the wars, and then
I have watched their homeward tread,
And they brought back bodies of living men,
But their eyes were fold and dead.

No matter what else the prize,
I want you to come back thru The Flame
With the boy-look still in your eyes!

By all their country's wishes blest!

By fairy hands their knell is rung,
By forms unseen their dirge is sung.

A thousand leagues of ocean, a company of kings,
You came across the watching world to show how heroes die.

Builds the halo of its glory,
'Twill belt the earth like Saturn's rings
And diadem the sky.
