The men that worked for England,
They have their graves at home;
And bees and birds of England
About the cross can roam.
But they that fought for England,
Following a falling star,
Alas, alas, for England,
They have their graves afar.
And they that rule in England
In stately conclave met,
Alas, alas, for England
They have no graves as yet.
~~G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936)
