God wattrd for us; now In awful wrath
He pours the blood of men out day by day
To purify, the hJshroad for her feet.

Are filled with thoughts like polson-polnted darts?.
It were not meet, surely it were not meet,
For Peace to come, and with her white robes hide
These industries of death these guns and swords
' -'These uniformed, "hats-filled, destructive hordes
r. These hideous -thlrree, tiiat are each nation's pride.
So long as men believe in armed might
Letarm8-.be- brandished. . Let not Peace be sought
