Life - give me life until the end, That at the very top of being, The battle-spirit shouting in my blood, Out of the reddest hell of the fight I may be snatched and flung Into the everlasting lull, The immortal, incommunicable dream.
William Ernest Henley (1893). “London Voluntaries ; The Song of the Sword, and Other Verses”, London : D. Nutt
