More Songs by the Fighting Men Living wherever men are not afraid

Of aught but making bravery a parade.

Yes, parleying with fear, they'll pause and say,

"At Gommecourt boys suffered worse that day";

Or, hesitating on some anxious brink,

They will become heroic when they think,

"Did they not rise mortality above

Who staked a lifetime all made sweet with love?"

May, 1917. 104
