The seventh is off! It was a long fight.... He went almost round the
horse's neck before he fell.

We must win the war, win the war, win the war!

Every sort of price must be paid, every Mud of curious coinage--the
pennies and farthings of fear and despair in odd places, as well as the
golden coin of life which is spent across the water.

All day long the words of command come over the ward window-sills. All
day long they bump and shout and sweat and play that charade of theirs
behind the guns.

All day long little men training to fill just such another hospital as
ours with other little men.

But one does not say any longer, "What a strange thing is life!" for
only in rare moments does the divine astonishment return.
