Environed me, and howled in mine ears

I trembling waked, and for a season after
Could not believe but that I was in hell,
Such terrible impression made my dream.”

For nothing political impinges on
This single casualty, or all those gone,
Missing or healing, sinking or dispersed,
Hundreds of thousands counted, millions lost.”
