Rh And the Ploughman settled the share

More deep in the sun-dried clod:—

"Mogul, Mahratta, and Mlech from the North,

"And White Queen over the Seas—

"God raiseth them up and driveth them forth

"As the dust of the ploughshare flies in the breeze;

"But the wheat and the cattle are all my care,

"And the rest is the will of God."
