Hence, armies shall be mobilized to slay The foes unseen, that lurk in human veins; And swift, aerial ships explore the sky. The mist-shod steps of Death's brigades to stay; Whilst Justice, on far heights, with searching eye, For Honor scans the error-laden plains, 47 The Clash of Thrones MARS MORITURUS When War, on gorgeously accoutred steed, Pranced proudly forth from wreckage of the fields, With music's throb and flash of furbished shields, Mankind, o'erglamored, praised the warrior's meed. ...Despite the butchery and gory greed Of Cannon's lust, or wanton Sword, that wields Its Mastery of Death, as columns speed Precipitous, through shelled and shattered fields. They hailed him Prince of Chivalry, and god Of noblest virtues, whose aspiring Dreams Must first be purged by fratricidal fires : His crimsoned Feet wooed flowers from the sod; His bleeding Wounds refreshed the spring-fed streams : Rare melodies thrummed he from sleeping lyres ! 48 The Clash of Thrones II But grizzled, now, and shorn of radiant locks, His perfumed breath as vile as shamble's fumes; With blood-blotched helmet and bedabbled plumes.
