BERNARD CASTLE STUBBS


Proem

So at the threat ye shall summon—so at the need ye shall send
Men, not children or servants, tempered and taught to the end;
Cleansed of servile panic, slow lo dread or despise
Humble because of knowledge, mighty by sacrifice....
So ye shall bide sure guarded when the restless lightnings wake
In the womb of the blotting war cloud, and the pallid nations quake.
Rudyard Kipling
