Page:Underwoods, Stevenson, 1887.djvu/73

Rh Sow gladness on the peopled lands,

And still with laughter, song and shout,

Spin the great wheel of earth about.

But ye?—O ye who linger still

Here in your fortress on the hill,

With placid face, with tranquil breath,

The unsought volunteers of death,

Our cheerful General on high

With careless looks may pass you by.
