Читать книгу The Spell of Flanders - Edward Neville Vose - Страница 6

“Our world has passed away,

In wantonness o’erthrown.

There’s nothing left to-day

But steel and fire and stone.

“Once more we hear the word

That sickened earth of old—

‘No law except the sword,

Unsheathed and uncontrolled.’ ”
