Wilfred S. Skeats Long Poems
- 1. Pro Deo Et Patria
Silent yet fiercely the battle is raging;
Blood is not flowing, but poison is spread;
Freedom and slavery madly are waging
A war that will last till its cause shall be dead.
... - 2. Visions
I.
THE NEW RESOLVE.
... - 3. To D. R. P
(In imitation of A. Lindsay Gordon.)
Well, Douglas, I'm sorry you've got to be homing,
... - 4. Dedication
To Thee, whose cheering words have urged me on
When fainting heart advised me to stay
My halting pen, and leave my task undone:
To Thee, I humbly dedicate this lay.
