said, when the pen attached the

the advertisements calling Britain

commemorate bloody conflict at all,

Hugo's vivid pen has given the world
in his wonderful chapter on the bat

Better than the brutalising sway
Of the sword were the international
peace proposals negotiated by Mr..

the lofty statements Of national as
