" Th'imaginary toiler woke The Cynic's fancies venomous, And then to me again he spoke In substance thus : u O parson ! stop your prate and boast, Don't apotheosize the man Who did not die at duty's post, In duty's van.
28 Why thus disgrace your sacred gown And be religion's empirics ? Why drag our high religion down For politics ?
Afraid to speak 'gainst sin and pride ?
'Gainst impious men of high renown ? If courage fails, then throw aside The sacred gown.
Poor and obscure are those who fough...t Amid the ranks of great divisions, Reward or fame were robbed or bought By politicians.
And deeds were done of bravest sin By privates poor that badly stank, While coward dolts who had rich kin Had general's rank.
Reports and papers puff and tell Of wealthy dolts as brave and great, When these same dolts the very smell Of powder hate.
A CYNIC.
Privates return, though brave and skilled, To natal towns without parade, For them no fatted calf is killed, No fuss is made.
The drunken colonel what awaits ?
