Yet Shall we absolve the nameless for the known, Who, choosing war, chose aught that war might bring And murdered all this hoarded beauty? No, Though they should vaunt a thousand victories This is their dire defeat. Here have they reached All that ambition coveted, reversed. Thinking on Rheims hereafter, and on them, The world's heart shall grow leaden with dismay, And age to age the shame reverberate So loud, so far, that legions yet unborn, Learning their loss, shall execrate the crime And, g...rieving, mingle pity with their blame. September 28, 1914. TO THE SPIRIT OF BYRON 27 TO THE SPIRIT OF BYRON "The Niobe of nations. " CHILDE HAROLD. THOU more than poet, Freedom's laureate, Byron ! Although some tyrant hand should blot All pages that to her are consecrate By loyal bards thus doomed to be forgot Who should despair if thine were quenched not? Oh, for thy voice when the world's heart is wrung At Honor made a barrack- jest and plot ! To what invective hadst thou given tongue ! Mourner of Rome, what dirge for Belgium hadst thou sung!
