GENERAL JOUBERT.
(Died March 27th, 1900.)
,;- With those that bre!, with those that * v loosed, the strife .*„ . He hnd no part whoso hands were clean of gain : But sub*le, strong, and stubborn, gave ■ - .y. 'his life *V--»j- .To a loss cause, and knew the gift was *%.*' ' vain. ■ Later shall rise a people sane and great, ; Forged in strong fires, by equal law . made one, Telling old battles over without; hateNoblest his name shall pass from sire to son. He shall not meat the onsweep of our van In the doomed cicy when we close the score. Yet o'er bis grave that holds a man Our deep-tongued guns shad answer his once more. Rudyard Kipling.
