ONE TOUGH OF NATURE.

Cruel and wild the battle:
Great horses plunged and reared,
And through dust-cloud and smOke-cloud,
Blood red with sunsets angry flush,
You heard the gun-shot's rattle,
And, mid hoof tramp and rush,
The shrieks of women speared.
For it was Russ and Turkomsn-
No quarter asked or given;
whirl of frenzied hate and death
Across the desert driven
Look! the half naked hordes give way,
Fleeing frantic without breath,
Or hope, or will; and on behind
The troopers storm, in blood thirst blind,
While, like dreadful fountain-p play,
The swords flash up, and fall and slay-
Wives, grandsires, baby brows and gray.
Gruan after grOan, yell upon yell
Are men but fiends, and is earth hell'
Nay. for out Of the flight and fear
Spurs "A Russian cuirassier,
In his arm child he bears,
Her little foot bleeds; stern she stares
Back at the ruin of her race.
The small hurt creature sheds no tear,
Nor utters cry; but clinging still
To this one arm that does not kill
She stares back with her baby face.
Apart. fenced round with ruined gear,
The hurrying horseman finds space,
Where. with face CrouChed upon her knee,
A woman covers You see him stOop
And reach the child down tenderly,
Then dash away To- join his troop.
How came one pulse of pity there
One heart that would not slay, but save
In all that Christ-torgotten sight'
War there. far north by Neva's wave,
Some Russian girl in sleep-robes white,
Making her peaceful evening prayer,
That heavens great mercy meath its care
Would keep and cover him 10 night'
Anthony Murehead in The Century.
