The Gods Remember
“ Loving the brave who strive and will not yield Though hurt and fallen on the field, They teach us not from death to fly, Lest we, indeed, should die! For 'tis their will the soul shall rise Above its earthly agonies: Triumphant rise, as from the pyre A Phœnix, winged by fire! This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1928. The longest-living author of this work died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or less. ”
