Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC EFEF GHGI JKJK

News Item It remains true that two hundred English and American men were sacrificed for as many peasant womenA
-
Once more I read writ out in blood and tearsB
Across this midnight page of sea and skyC
The legend of our English race that fearsD
never death but to refuse to dieC
-
Soldier and merchant men of bench and barE
Of brush and pen of gold deep multipliedF
To those poor women peasants from afarE
You gave your places and in giving diedF
-
Yet not for these oh not for these aloneG
You made the last the lasting sacrificeH
On those dark seas great Honor called her ownG
All women's faces set before their eyesI
-
Lord of the virtues spare O spare us suchJ
We cannot live without this grace from theeK
Gold statecraft beauty yea we need them muchJ
But more ah God this ancient gallantryK
