War knows no...
Vendor: DRAMATISTS
War knows no power. Safe shall be my going,
Secretly armed against all death's endeavour;
Safe though all safety's lost; safe where men fall;
And if these poor limbs die, safest of all.
Source: Safety.
-- Rupert Brooke, (Aug 3 1887-1915), English poet; He was a gifted youth whose early death in World War I contributed to his idealized image; best known work is the sonnet sequence 1914.
