Why of War, O thou that lovest rather

Peace of roses in a rain-sweet garden,

Peace of moonlit silver-heaving waters,

All the lovely looks of little children?

What strange mandate

Bids thee sing of War, who lovest these things?

How of War, O faint-heart, thou that grievest

Over every gentle creature wounded,

All soft eyes of pain and puzzled sorrow,
