Lords without anger and honour, who dare not carry their swords.
They fight by shuffling papers; they have bright dead alien eyes;
They look at our labour and laughter as a tired man looks at flies.”

“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
