Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from War Poems My Country My country! my country! my country! They say thou art craven and weak; Thou wilt leave the brave sword in thy scabbard, And turn to the smiter thy cheek; Thou wilt count the bright coin in thy coffer, Thou wilt garner the gold of thy grain, Thou wilt look on the death of thy children Untouched by the wrong or the pain! My country! my country! my country! They say thou art willing to stand And see the last battle of freedom Lost, lost for the lack of thy hand! Thou wilt hear the far roll of the cannon, Thou wilt see the dim smoke and the stain, Thou wilt gird up thy star-robes about thee. And turn to thy traffic again. My country! my country! my country! They lie that will say of thee so! The stars that have led thee shall lead thee - The hours of His Judgment they know! Thy feet will be swift on His pathway, Though the grapes of His wrath should be red; Thou wilt leap to His trumpet, my country, With the might of thy quick and thy dead!
