Clifton Chapel
This is the Chapel: here, my son,
学习啦在线学习网 Your father thought the thoughts of youth,
And heard the words that one by one
The touch of Life has turn'd to truth.
Here in a day that is not far,
You too may speak with noble ghosts
学习啦在线学习网 Of manhood and the vows of war
You made before the Lord of Hosts.
To set the cause above renown,
学习啦在线学习网 To love the game beyond the prize,
学习啦在线学习网 To honour, while you strike him down,
学习啦在线学习网 The foe that comes with fearless eyes;
学习啦在线学习网 To count the life of battle good,
学习啦在线学习网 And dear the land that gave you birth,
And dearer yet the brotherhood
学习啦在线学习网 That binds the brave of all the earth.-
学习啦在线学习网 My son, the oath is yours: the end
Is His, Who built the world of strife,
学习啦在线学习网 Who gave His children Pain for friend,
And Death for surest hope of life.
To-day and here the fight's begun,
Of the great fellowship you're free;
Henceforth the School and you are one,
学习啦在线学习网 And what You are, the race shall be.
学习啦在线学习网 God send you fortune: yet be sure,
Among the lights that gleam and pass,
You'll live to follow none more pure
Than that which glows on yonder brass:
学习啦在线学习网 Qui procul hinc,the legend's writ,
The frontier-grave is far away
学习啦在线学习网 Qui ante diem periit:
学习啦在线学习网 Sed miles, sed pro patria.

A Ballad of John Nicholson
学习啦在线学习网 It fell in the year of Mutiny,
学习啦在线学习网 At darkest of the night,
学习啦在线学习网 John Nicholson by Jalándhar came,
On his way to Delhi fight.
学习啦在线学习网 And as he by Jalándhar came,
学习啦在线学习网 He thought what he must do,
And he sent to the Rajah fair greeting,
学习啦在线学习网 To try if he were true.
学习啦在线学习网 “God grant your Highness length of days,
And friends when need shall be;
And I pray you send your Captains hither,
学习啦在线学习网 That they may speak with me.“
On the morrow through Jalándhar town
学习啦在线学习网 The Captains rode in state;
They came to the house of John Nicholson,
学习啦在线学习网 And stood before the gate.
学习啦在线学习网 The chief of them was Mehtab Singh,
He was both proud and sly;
学习啦在线学习网 His turban gleamed with rubies red,
He held his chin full high.
He marked his fellows how they put
Their shoes from off their feet;
“Now wherefore make ye such ado
These fallen lords to greet?
学习啦在线学习网 “They have ruled us for a hundred years,
In truth I know not how,
But though they be fain of mastery
They dare not claim it now.“
Right haughtily before them all
学习啦在线学习网 The durbar hall he trod,
With rubies red his turban gleamed,
His feet with pride were shod.
They had not been an hour together,
A scanty hour or so,
When Mehtab Singh rose in his place
学习啦在线学习网 And turned about to go.
Then swiftly came John Nicholson
学习啦在线学习网 Between the door and him,
With anger smouldering in his eyes,
学习啦在线学习网 That made the rubies dim.
学习啦在线学习网 “You are over-hasty, Mehtab Singh,”
学习啦在线学习网 Oh, but his voice was low!
学习啦在线学习网 He held his wrath with a curb of iron
That furrowed cheek and brow.
“You are over-hasty, Mehtab Singh,
When that the rest are gone,
学习啦在线学习网 I have a word that may not wait
学习啦在线学习网 To speak with you alone.
学习啦在线学习网 The Captains passed in silence forth
And stood the door behind;
To go before the game was played
学习啦在线学习网 Be sure they had no mind.
学习啦在线学习网 But there within John Nicholson
Turned him on Mehtab Singh,
“So long as the soul is in my body
You shall not do this thing.
“Have ye served us for a hundred years
And yet ye know not why?

A Letter From the Front
学习啦在线学习网 I was out early to-day, spying about
From the top of a haystack —— such a lovely morning
And when I mounted again to canter back
学习啦在线学习网 I saw across a field in the broad sunlight
A young Gunner Subaltern, stalking along
With a rook-rifle held at the read, and —— would you believe it?
A domestic cat, soberly marching beside him.
So I laughed, and felt quite well disposed to the youngster,
And shouted out the top of the morning to him,
学习啦在线学习网 And wished him Good sport! —— and then I remembered
My rank, and his, and what I ought to be doing:
And I rode nearer, and added, I can only suppose
You have not seen the Commander-in-Chief's order
Forbidding English officers to annoy their Allies
By hunting and shooting.
But he stood and saluted
And said earnestly, "I beg your pardon, Sir,
I was only going out to shoot a sparrow
To feed my cat with.
So there was the whole picture,
学习啦在线学习网 The lovely early morning, the occasional shell
学习啦在线学习网 Screeching and scattering past us, the empty landscape,
Empty, except for the young Gunner saluting,
And the cat, anxiously watching his every movement.
学习啦在线学习网 I may be wrong, or I may have told it badly,
But it struck me as being extremely ludicrous
