Famous quotes by julian grenfell:

    Through joy and blindness he shall know,
    Not caring much to know, that still
    Nor lead nor steel shall reach him,
    Julian Grenfell (1888–1915)

    The thundering line of battle stands,
    And in the air Death moans and sings:
    But Day shall clasp him with strong hands,
    And Night shall fold him in soft wings.
    Julian Grenfell (1888–1915)

    The horses show him nobler powers;
    O patient eyes, courageous hearts!
    Julian Grenfell (1888–1915)
