“Drummer, beat, and piper, blow
Harper, strike, and soldier, go
Free the flame and sear the grasses
Til the dawning Red Star passes”

“Gather leaves and grasses,
Love, to-day;
For the Autumn passes
Soon away.
Chilling winds are blowing.
It will soon be snowing.”

“I hear always the sad voices
of summer
passing like red winged birds
over the high grass”

“Comrades. Our labour has ended, the armed struggle has begun... The invincible flames of the reovlution will glow, turning to lead and steel... There will be a great rupture and wel will be the makers of the new dawn ... We shall convert the black fire into red and the red into pure light.”

“When the wind blows, the grass bends.”

“When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
So-oldier of the Queen!”

“A blow with a word strikes deeper than a blow with a sword.”

“Red-in-red repetitions never going
Away, a little rusty, a little rouged,
A little roughened and ruder, a crownThe eye could not escape, a red renown
Blowing itself upon the tedious ear.”
