“For nations vague as weed,
For nomads among stones,
Small-statured cross-faced tribes
And cobble-close families
In mill-towns on dark mornings
Life is slow dying.”

Set honor in one eye, and death ith other,
And I will look on both indifferently;
For let the gods so speed me as I love
The name of honor more than I fear death.”
