On.

Lepcke, Female Archer, 1905


Fight ever on: this Earthly stuff
If used God’s way will be enough.
Face to the firing line, O friend,
Fight out life’s battle to the end.

One soldier, when the fight was red,
Threw down his broken sword and fled.
Another snatched it, won the day,
With what his comrade flung away. 

Edwin Markham
