A quaint old gabled cottage sleeps between the raving hills	A
To right and left are livid strife but on the deep wide sills	A
The purple pot flowers swell and glow and o'er the walls and eaves	B
Prinked creeper steals caressing hands the poplar drips its leaves	B
Within the garden hot and sweet	C
Fair form and woven color meet	C
While down the clear cool stones 'tween banks with branch and blossom gay	D
A little bridged blind rivulet goes touching out its way	D
	-
Peace lingers hidden from the knife the tearing blinding shell	E
Where falls the spattered sunlight on a lichen covered well	E
No voice is here no fall of feet no smoke lifts cool and grey	D
But on the granite stoop a cat blinks vaguely at the day	D
From hill to hill across the vale	F
Storms man's terrific iron gale	F
The cot roof on a brooding dove recks not the distant gun	G
A brown hen scolds her chickens chasing midges in the sun	G
	-
Now down the eastward slope they come	H
No call of life no beat of drum	H
But stealthily and in the green	I
Low hid with rifle and machine	I
Spit hate and death and red blood flows	J
To shame the whiteness of the rose	J
	-
Crack followes crash the bestial roar	K
Of gastly and insensate war	K
Breaks on the cot A rending stoke	L
The red roof springs and in the smoke	L
And spume of shells the riven walls	M
Pile where the splintered elm tree spawls	M
	-
From westward streaming down hill	N
Shot ravaged thinned but urgent still	N
The brown fierce blooded Anzacs sweep	O
And Hell leaps a up The lilies weep	O
Strange crimson tears Tight lipped and mute	P
The grim gaunt soldiers stab and shoot	P
	-
It passes Frantic fleeing death	Q
Wild eyed foam flecked and every breath	Q
A labored agony like deer	R
That feel the hounds' keen teeth appear	R
The Prussian men and wild to slay	D
The hunters press upon their prey	D
	-
Cries fade and fitful shots die down The	S
Tumbled ruin now	T
Smoke faintly in the summer light and lifts	M
The trodden bough	T
A sigh stirs in the trampled green and held	U
And tainted red	V
The rill creeps o'er a dead man's face and steals along its bed	V
One deep among the lilacs thrown	W
Shock all the stillness with a moan	W
Peace like the snowflake lights again where utter silence lies	M
And softly with white finger tips she seals a soldier eyes	M
