+
+  Our tears, our songs, our laurels--what are these

+  Stretched in thine unimagined agonies
+    On Hell's last engine of the Iron Cross.
+
+  For such a world as this that thou shouldst die
+    Is price too vast--yet, Belgium, hadst thou sold
+  Thyself, O then had fled from out the earth
+    Honour for ever, and left only Gold.
+
+  Nor diest thou--for soon shalt thou awake,
+    And, lifted high on our victorious shields,
+  Watch the new sunrise driving for your sons
+    The hated German shadow from your fields.

+
+THE SILK-HAT SOLDIER
+
+
+  I saw him in a picture, and I felt I'd like to cry--
+      He stood in line,
+      The man "for mine,"
+  A tall silk-hatted "guy"--
+      Right on the call,
+      Silk hat and all,
+  He'd hurried to the cry--
+  For he loves England well enough for England to die.
+
+  I've seen King Harry's helmet in the Abbey hanging high--
+      The one he wore
+      At Agincourt;
+  But braver to my eye
+      That city toff
+      Too keen to doff
+  His stove-pipe--bless him--why?
+  For he loves England well enough for England to die.
+
+  And other fellows in that line had come too on the fly,
+      Their joys and toys,
+      Brave English boys,
+  For good and all put by;
+      O you brave best,
+      Teach all the rest
+  How pure the heart and high
+  When one loves England well enough for England to die.
+
+  One threw his cricket-bat aside, one left the ink to dry;
+      All peace and play
+      He's put away,
+  And bid his love good-bye--
+      O mother mine!
+      O sweetheart mine!
+  No man of yours am I--
+  If I love not England well enough for England to die.
+
+  I guess it strikes a chill somewhere, the bravest won't deny,
+      All that you love,
+      Away to shove,
+  And set your teeth to die;
+      But better dead,
+      When all is said,
+  Than lapped in peace to lie--
+  If we love not England well enough for England to die.
+
+
+
+
+THE CRY OF THE LITTLE PEOPLES
+
+
+  The Cry of the Little Peoples went up to God in vain;
+  The Czech and the Pole, and the Finn, and the Schleswig Dane:
+
+  We ask but a little portion of the green, ambitious earth;
+  Only to sow and sing and reap in the land of our birth.
+
+  We ask not coaling stations, nor ports in the China seas,
+  We leave to the big child-nations such rivalries as these.
+
+  We have learned the lesson of Time, and we know three things of worth;
+  Only to sow and sing and reap in the land of our birth.
+
+  O leave us little margins, waste ends of land and sea,
+  A little grass, and a hill or two, and a shadowing tree;
+
+  O leave us our little rivers that sweetly catch the sky,
+  To drive our mills, and to carry our wood, and to ripple by.
+
+  Once long ago, as you, with hollow pursuit of fame,
+  We filled all the shaking world with the sound of our name,
+
+  But now are we glad to rest, our battles and boasting done,
+  Glad just to sow and sing and reap in our share of the sun.
+
+  Of this O will ye rob us,--with a foolish mighty hand,
+  Add with such cruel sorrow, so small a land to your land?
+
+  So might a boy rejoice him to conquer a hive of bees,
+  Overcome ants in battle,--we are scarcely more mighty than these--
+
+  So might a cruel heart hear a nightingale singing alone,
+  And say, "I am mighty! See how the singing stops with a stone!"
+
+  Yea, he were mighty indeed, mighty to crush and to gain;
+  But the bee and the ant and the bird were the mighty of brain.
+
+  And what shall you gain if you take us and bind us and beat us with
+        thongs,
+  And drive us to sing underground in a whisper our sad little songs?
+
+  Forbid us the very use of our heart's own nursery tongue--
+  Is this to be strong, ye nations, is this to be strong?
+
+  Your vulgar battles to fight, and your grocery conquests to keep,
+  For this shall we break our hearts, for this shall our old men weep?
+
+  What gain in the day of battle--to the Russ, to the German, what gain,
+  The Czech, and the Pole, and the Finn, and the Schleswig Dane?
+
+  The Cry of the Little Peoples goes up to God in vain,
+  For the world is given over to the cruel sons of Cain;
+
+  The hand that would bless us is weak, and the hand that would break us
+        is strong,
+  And the power of pity is nought but the power of a song.
+
+  The dreams that our fathers dreamed to-day are laughter and dust,
+  And nothing at all in the world is left for a man to trust;
+
+  Let us hope no more, or dream, or prophesy, or pray,
+  For the iron world no less will crash on its iron way;
+
+  Yea! nothing is left but to watch, with a helpless, pitying eye,
+  The kind old aims for the world, and the kind old fashions die.
+
+
+
+
+THE ILLUSION OF WAR
+
+
+  War
+  I abhor,
+  And yet how sweet
+  The sound along the marching street
+  Of drum and fife, and I forget
+  Wet eyes of widows, and forget
+  Broken old mothers, and the whole
+  Dark butchery without a soul.
+
+  Without a soul--save this bright drink
+  Of heady music, sweet as hell;
+  And even my peace-abiding feet
+  Go marching with the marching street,
+  For yonder, yonder goes the fife,
+  And what care I for human life!
+  The tears fill my astonished eyes
+  And my full heart is like to break,
+  And yet 'tis all embannered lies,
+  A dream those little drummers make.
+
+  O it is wickedness to clothe
+  Yon hideous grinning thing that stalks
+  Hidden in music, like a queen
+  That in a garden of glory walks,
+  Till good men love the thing they loathe.
+  Art, thou hast many infamies,
+  But not an infamy like this;
+  O snap the fife and still the drum,
+  And show the monster as she is.
+
+
+
+
+CHRISTMAS IN WAR-TIME
+
+
+  1
+
+  This is the year that has no Christmas Day,
+  Even the little children must be told
+  That something sad is happening far away--
+  Or, if you needs must play,
+  As children must,
+  Play softly children, underneath your breath!
+  For over our hearts hangs low the shadow of death,
+  Those hearts to you mysteriously old,
+  Grim grown-up hearts that ponder night and day
+  On the straight lists of broken-hearted dead,
+  Black narrow lists no tears can wash away,
+  Reading in which one cries out here and here
+  And falls into a dream upon a name.
+  Be happy softly, children, for a woe
+  Is on us, a great woe for little fame,--
+  Ah! in the old woods leave the mistletoe,
+  And leave the holly for another year,
+  Its berries are too red.
+
+
+  2
+
+  And lovers, like to children, will not you
+  Cease for a little from your kissing mirth,
+  Thinking of other lovers that must go
+  Kissed back with fire into the bosom of earth,--
+  Ah! in the old woods leave the mistletoe,
+  Be happy, softly, lovers, for you too
+  Shall be as sad as they another year,
+  And then for you the holly be berries of blood,
+  And mistletoe strange berries of bitter tears.
+  Ah! lovers, leave you your beatitude,
+  Give your sad eyes and ears
+  To the far griefs of neighbour and of friend,
+  To the great loves that find a little end,
+  Long loves that in a sudden puff of fire
+  With a wild thought expire.
+
+
+  3
+
+  And you, ye merchants, you that eat and cheat,
+  Gold-seeking hucksters in a noble land,
+  Think, when you lift the wine up in your hand,
+  Of a fierce vintage tragically red,
+  Red wine of the hearts of English soldiers dead,
+  Who ran to a wild death with laughing feet--
+  That we may sleep and drink and eat and cheat.
+  Ah! you brave few that fight for all the rest,
+  And die with smiling faces strangely blest,
+  Because you die for England--O to do
+  Something again for you,
+  In this great deed to have some little part;
+  To send so great a message from the heart
+  Of England that one man shall be as ten,
+  Hearing how England loves her Englishmen!
+  Ah! think you that a single gun is fired
+  We do not hear in England. Ah! we hear,
+  And mothers go with proud unhappy eyes
+  That say: It is for England that he dies,
+  England that does the cruel work of God,
+  And gives her well beloved to save the world.
+  For this is death like to a woman desired,
+  For this the wine-press trod.
+
+
+  4
+
+  And you in churches, praying this Christmas morn,
+  Pray as you never prayed that this may be
+  The little war that brought the great world peace;
+  Undazzled with its glorious infamy,
+  O pray with all your hearts that war may cease,
+  And who knows but that God may hear the prayer.
+  So it may come about next Christmas Day
+  That we shall hear the happy children play
+  Gladly aloud, unmindful of the dead,
+  And watch the lovers go
+  To the old woods to find the mistletoe.
+  But this year, children, if you needs must play,
+  Play very softly, underneath your breath;
+  Be happy softly, lovers, for great Death
+  Makes England holy with sorrow this Christmas Day;
+  Yes! in the old woods leave the mistletoe,
+  And leave the holly for another year--
+  Its berries are too red.

+"SOLDIER GOING TO THE WAR"
+
+
+  Soldier going to the war--
+    Will you take my heart with you,
+  So that I may share a little
+    In the famous things you do?
+
+  Soldier going to the war--
+    If in battle you must fall,
+  Will you, among all the faces,
+    See my face the last of all?
+
+  Soldier coming from the war--
+    Who shall bind your sunburnt brow
+  With the laurel of the hero,
+    Soldier, soldier--vow for vow!
+
+  Soldier coming from the war--
+    When the street is one wide sea,
+  Flags and streaming eyes and glory--
+    Soldier, will you look for me?
+
+
+
+
+THE RAINBOW
+
+
+  "These things are real," said one, and bade me gaze
+    On black and mighty shapes of iron and stone,
+  On murder, on madness, on lust, on towns ablaze,
+    And on a thing made all of rattling bone:
+  "What," said he, "will you bring to match with these?"
+    "Yea! War is real," I said, "and real is Death,
+  A little while--mortal realities;
+    But Love and Hope draw an immortal breath."
+
+  Think you the storm that wrecks a summer day,
+    With funeral blackness and with leaping fire
+  And boiling roar of rain, more real than they
+    That, when the warring heavens begin to tire,
+  With tender fingers on the tumult paint;
+    Spanning the huddled wrack from base to cope
+  With soft effulgence, like some haloed saint,--
+    The rainbow bridge eternal that is Hope.
+
+  Deem her no phantom born of desperate dreams:
+    Ere man yet was, 'twas hope that wrought him man;
+  The blind earth, climbing skyward by her gleams,
+    Hoped--and the beauty of the world began.
+  Prophetic of all loveliness to be,
+    Though God Himself seem from His station hurled,
+  Still shall the blackest hell look up and see
+    Hope's rainbow on the summits of the world.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
