AGE AND WAR.
I have gained the crest of the hill, I hgve fought my fight. So well have I fought That none will give unto mc . That which I loathe, A pity unsought. Well have I climbed, I have left the morning behind; Love- with Its roses and sweetness Have I left in the valley below. I have gained the crest ■of the hill, Before mc stretches the plain; High as the hill doth it lie, Straight and even and smooth. : I have fought my flght. And the way is. peace— A lethargic peace Is it evermore? Give mc again the flght! And fighting lee re depart 'Ere the stillness comes after battle. ,-OUYE TILI/Y, AnclOand.
