...our dead shall not return to us while day and night divide
Never while the bars of sunset hold.
But the idle-minded overlings who quibbled while they died,
Shall they thrust for high employments as of old?
Never while the bars of sunset hold.
But the idle-minded overlings who quibbled while they died,
Shall they thrust for high employments as of old?
...their lives cannot repay us - their deaths could not undo -
The shame that they have laid upon our race
But the slothfulness that wasted and the arrogance that slew,
Shall we leave it unabated in its place?
