To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Is that the camp that marks the latest stage On man's adventurous quest ? Full well we knew That we had left behind the peace that dwells In quiet woodland ways. Yes, for we dreamed Of danger and of strife, of sorrow and sin ; But always in our dream a battle song Called us to fields unwon, and evermore, Above the failure and the sacrifice, We heard the voice of hope that told the world 71 72 IN THE WORLD It laboured not in vain. Is this that world ? This the great comrade host ? Our eyes are d...im ; For we have seen the saddest sight on earth, — Her faithless millions.
Toil and strife and sin, Pity and love we see ; but what that speaks Of man's belief in a great destiny ? What symbol shines before us ? Not the sword ! — The noble cause unsheaths it not : we fi^rht Not to save others, nay, we hardly dare To fight to save our honour or ourselves. The cross ? It stands aloft on spire and dome, An ornament above the empty church, While underneath it in the market-place We kneel, we bow before the Belly-god, He is our own !
