the gloom in the church of the Knights Templar was deep
long ago heroes for Christ___
effigies kneel before a cross
where their faith is transparent
they gave their lives willing___ could we do thus?

1916
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!

Phew, this takes me back in my imagination! The Knights Templar is such an evocative image!
