OUR FIGHTING MEN
The war is like the Judgment DayAll sham, all pretext torn- away; And swift the searching hours reveal Hearts good as gold, souls true as steel. Blest saints and martyrs in disguise, Concealed ere-while from mortal eyeß And now we feel that,all around Have angels walked the well-known ground; , .Not winged and strange beyond our ken, But in the form of common men. God's messengers from Heaven's own sphere—... Unrecognised because so near. —Ella F. Maitland. ■ Spectator; ,
