TRIBUTE TO ROBERTS
nv rahle 10 The Trihnne |


London. Nov. 19.-"The Daily Tele-
graph" publishes the following poem,
entitled Lord Roberts," by Rudyard
Kipling:
He passed in the very battle smoke
OF the war that he described;
Three hundred mile of cannon spoke
When the master gunner died.
lie passed to the very sound of guns,
But before his eye grew dim
He had seen the faces of the sons
Whose sires had served with him.
He had touched their swordhilts and
greeted each
With the old sure word of praise,
And there was virtue in touch and
speech
As it had been in older days.
So he dismissed them and took his rest
And the stcadfast spirit went forth
Between the adoring East and West
And the tireless guns in the North.
Clean, simple, valiant. we'll beloved,
Flawless in faith and fame,
Whom neither ease nor honors moved
A hairs breadth from his aim.
Never again the war-wise face.
The weighed and urgent word,
That pleaded in the marketplace,
Pleaded and was not heard.
Yet from life new life aprings
Through all the hosts to come,
And glory is the least OF things
That follow this man home.
