An orthodox mask help conventional lives
For exceptional, there are outstanding veils,
Masterminds have their diverse visor thrives
The pattern resumes with neither bisections nor bails.
...
Give me the scorn of the stars and a peak defiant;
Wail of the pines and a wind with the shout of a giant;
Night and a trail unknown and a heart reliant.
Give me to live and love in the old, bold fashion;
A soldier's billet at night and a soldier's ration;
A heart that leaps to the fight with a soldier's passion.
