The World

The Flesh

and the   instead of completing

the christian saying with the usual

term "devil" only a cartoon drawing

of a german soldier is shown

 

A Pepper 


 

 right side 

Stand not aloof or apart,

Plunge in the thick of the fight;

Here in the street or the mart,

Here is the place to do right.

Not in some cloister or cave,
not in some kingdom above;

But here, on this side of the grave,

Here should we labour and love.
