| : | : | Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries (A.E.Housman)
These, in the day when heaven was falling, The hour when earth's foundations fled, Followed their mercenary calling And took their wages and are dead. Their shoulders held the sky suspended; They stood, and earth's foundations stay; What God abandoned, these defended, And saved the sum of things for pay. Another Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries (Hugh MacDiarmid) It is a God-damned lie to say that these Saved, or knew, anything worth any man’s pride. They were professional murderers and they took Their blood money and impious risks and died. In spite of all their kind, some elements of worth With difficulty persist here and there on earth. |
