Book Description

Excerpt from The Retinue and Other Poems Soldiers of Freedom They veiled their souls with laughter And many a mocking pose, These lads who follow after Wherever Freedom goes; These lads we used to censure For levity and ease, On Freedom's high adventure Go shining overseas. Our springing tears adore them, These boys at school and play, Fair-fortuned years before them, Alas! but yesterday; Divine with sudden splendor - Oh, how our eyes were blind! - In careless self-surrender They battle for mankind.
