Book III Unravelling the Threads
“... and drank delight of battle with my peers.”
Tennyson.
“Yet would you tread again
All the road over?
Face the old joy and pain—
Hemlock and clover?
Yes. For it still was good,
Good to be living,
Buoyant of heart and blood;
Fighting, forgiving.”
Austin Dobson.
“Oh! the hardest day was never then too hard.”
Lindsay Gordon.
