Are there no rights save yours, no claims save your warring wills?

Sense has a word to say, Justice a thing to do.

Are we to wait and wait while the land with suffering thrills,

For you?

Sympathy? Ay, good friends! But sympathy's not like wrath,

One-eyed, one-sided, partial. Sympathy's due to all

Who fall, fate-tripped and bruised, in your quarrel's Juggernaut path.

We think of the wives and children—Charity heeds their call;

Does she not proffer her dole "without prejudice"?—Yes, but they

Are not sole sufferers now from the Coal War's venomous strife.
