THE BOOK OF HALLOWE'EN
 
"Mother, my Mother, Mother-Country,

Was it not all to save
Harvest of bread?—Harvest of men?

And the bright years, wave on wave?
"Search not, search not, my way-worn;

Search neither weald nor wave.
One is their heavy reaping-time

To the earth, that is one wide grave."
Marks: All Soul's Eve.
