rime against innocent blood which no words can characterize.--PASTOR B. LOeSCHE,[39] D.S.E.S.D., p. 4. 412. The unexampled sorrow and need begotten by the gigantic world-war conjured up by England's brutal egoism--"_the greatest crime in the whole world-history_"--has inclined many suffering people to suicide.--PROF. E. HAECKEL, E.W., p. 39. 413. [Title.] "The Greatest Criminal against Humanity of the Twentieth Century, KING EDWARD VII. OF ENGLAND. A Curse Pamphlet (_Fluchschrift_),[40] by Lieutenant-Colonel Reinhold Wagner." He it was, he it was that kindled the world-war. He was the incarnation of the boundless selfishness and unscrupulousness of Englishism (_Englaendertum_). Opening words of above-cited pamphlet. 414. White snow, white snow, fall, fall for seven weeks; all may'st thou cover, far and wide, but never England's shame; white snow, white snow, never the sins of England.--G. FALCK, quoted in H.A.H., p. 50. =British Vices--Hypocrisy, Envy and Greed.= 415. England thinks the hour has come for our annihilation. Why does she want to annihilate us? Because she cannot forgive our strength, our industry, our prosperity! There is no other explanation![41]--PROF. A. v. HARNACK, I.M., 1st October, 1914, p. 25. 416. No other people has misused its riches as England has. With a hypocritically virtuous air, the British Chauvinist has for years been labouring to undermine the German name, and few can have divined with what means he went to work.--"GERMANUS," B.U.D.K., p. 47. 417. We cannot expect our enemies to try to do us justice--though we can, after all, sympathetically understand almost all of them, with the sole exception of the English, in whom the transparently base abstractness of the calculating business spirit lies beneath the level of humanity, and is so positively immoral as to be entirely outside the scope of sympathy.--G. MISCH, V.G.D.K., p. 8. 418. And then England! She does not, like France, send all her sons into the field, but sends specially enlisted troops. There lurks the impelling evil spirit, which has conjured up this war out of hell--the spirit of envy and the spirit of hypocrisy.--PROF. U. V. WILAMOWITZ-MOeLLENDORF, R., pt. i., p. 7. 419. England is a Moloch that will devour everything, a vampire that will suck tribute from all the veins of the earth, a monster snake encircling the whole Equator.--"My German Fatherland," by PASTOR TOLZIEN, quoted in H.A.H., p. 140. 420.
