throb from heart to heart。 

    The   rulers   of the   nation�察�The poor   ones   at   their   gate�察�With   the   same 

eager    wonder    The   same    great  news    await。  The   poor   man's   stay   and 

comfort�察�The rich man's joy and pride�察�Upon the bleak Crimean shore Are 

fighting side by side。 

    The   bullet   comesand   either   A   desolate   hearth   may   see�察  �And   God 

alone to´night knows where The vacant place may be� �The dread that stirs 

the peasant Thrills nobles' hearts with fear ´ Yet above selfish sorrow Both 

hold their country dear。 

    The rich man who reposes In his ancestral shade�察�The peasant at his 

ploughshare�察�The worker at his trade�察�Each one his all his perilled�察�Each 

has the same great stake�察�Each soul can but have patience�察�Each heart can 

only break� �

    Hushed is all party clamour�察�One thought in every heart�察�One dread in 

every    household�察   �Has   bid   such   strife  depart。  England    has   called  her 

children�察   �Long    silentthe  word    came   That   lit  the  smouldering    ashes 

Through all the land to flame。 

    Oh you who toil and suffer�察�You gladly heard the call�察�But those you 

sometimes envy Have they not given their all�拭�Oh you who rule the nation�察�

Take now the toil´worn hand ´ Brothers you are in sorrow�察�In duty to your 

land。   Learn   but   this   noble   lesson   Ere   Peace   returns   again�察�And   the   life´ 

blood of Old England Will not be shed in vain。 



                                                                                     96

          VERSE�此                   �THE TWO SPIRITS 

                                      ��1855�� 



     Last night�察�when weary silence fell on all�察�And starless skies arose so 

dim and vast�察�I heard the Spirit of the Present call Upon the sleeping Spirit 

of the Past。 Far off and near�察�I saw their radiance shine�察�And listened while 

they spoke of deeds divine。 

     The Spirit of the Past。 

     My deeds are writ in iron�察�My glory stands alone�察�A veil of shadowy 

honour   Upon   my   tombs   is   thrown�察  �The   great   names   of   my   heroes   Like 

gems in history lie�察�To live they deemed ignoble�察�Had they the chance to 

die� �

     The Spirit of the Present。 

     My   children�察  �too�察  �are   honoured�察  �Dear   shall   their   memory   be   To   the 

proud   lands   that   own   them�察  �Dearer   than   thine   to   thee�察  �For�察  �though   they 

hold that sacred Is God's great gift of life�察�At the first call of duty They 

rush into the strife� �

     The Spirit of the Past。 

     Then�察�with all valiant precepts Woman's soft heart was fraught�察 �Death�察�

not   dishonour�察─  �echoed   The   war´cry   she   had   taught。   Fearless   and   glad�察�

those mothers�察�At bloody deaths elate�察�Cried out they bore their children 

Only for such a fate� �

     The Spirit of the Present。 

     Though such stern laws of honour Are faded now away�察�Yet   many  a 

mourning       mother�察   �With    nobler    grief   than   they�察  �Bows     down    in   sad 

submission�此  �The   heroes   of   the   fight   Learnt   at   her   knee   the   lesson�察   �For 

God and for the Right� ─�

     The Spirit of the Past。 

     No   voice   there   spake   of   sorrow�此  �They   saw   the   noblest   fall   With   no 

repining   murmur�察  �Stern   Fate   was   lord   of   all。 And   when   the   loved   ones 

perished�察  �One   cry   alone   arose�察  �Waking   the   startled   echoes�察   �Vengeance 

upon our foes� ─�



                                                                                          98

     The Spirit of the Present。 

     Grief dwells in France and England For many a noble son�察�Yet louder 

than   the   sorrow�察   �Thy  will�察  �Oh   God�察  �be   done� ─  �From  desolate   homes   is 

rising One prayer�察 �Let carnage cease� �On friends and foes have mercy�察�Oh 

Lord�察�and give us peace� ─�

     The Spirit of the Past。 

     Then�察   �every    hearth   was   honoured     That    sent  its  children   forth�察  �To 

spread   their   country's   glory�察  �And   gain    her   south   or   north。   Then�察  �little 

recked they numbers�察�No band would ever fly�察�But stern and resolute they 

stood To conquer or to die。 

     The Spirit of the Present。 

     And   now   from   France   and   England   Their   dearest   and   their   best   Go 

forth to succour freedom�察�To help the much oppressed�察�Now�察�let the far´off 

Future And Past bow down to´day�察�Before the few young hearts that hold 

Whole armaments at bay。 

     The Spirit of the Past。 

     Then�察 �each   one   strove   for honour�察  �Each   for   a deathless   name�察  �Love�察�

home�察�rest�察�joy�察�were offered As sacrifice to Fame。 They longed that in far 

ages Their deeds might still be told�察�And distant times and nations Their 

names in honour hold。 

     The Spirit of the Present。 

     Though      nursed    by   such    old   legends�察   �Our    heroes    of  to´day    Go 

cheerfully   to    battle   As  children   go   to   play�察 �They   gaze    with   awe   and 

wonder   On   your   great   names   of   pride�察  �Unconscious   that   their   own   will 

shine In glory side by side� �

     Day dawned�察�and as the Spirits passed away�察�Methought I saw�察�in the 

dim morning grey�察�The Past's bright diadem had paled before The starry 

crown the glorious Present wore。 



                                                                                          99
