Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Swords and Plowshares The God of War From the French of Théodore Jean So be it! Our globe is but a hell Of torments, crimes, and sins abhorred, Where Force by dint of fire and sword Subdues his victims all too well... O god whom patriots adore, I scorn thee; for in thee I see The symbol of barbarity. Therefore I hate thee, god of war! As mothers curse thee, so curse I - Mothers whose sons were racked with pain, Whose mutilated bodies slain Are heaped in vain beneath the sky. With pick and hammer let us rise And break this idol-shape of stone, Breathing forth slaughter from his throne Hid in the inmost shrine of lies. Down with the temple which above Sets up a blood-bespattered rag! And let us with a world-wide flag Find freedom in the work of love.
