| But should we stay to speak, noontide would come, |
| And thwart Silenus find his goats undrawn, |
| And grudge to sing those wise and lovely songs |
| Of Fate, and Chance, and God, and Chaos old, |
| And Love, and the Chained Titan's woeful doom, |
| And how he shall be loosed, and make the earth |
| One brotherhood.... |

| QVI ANTE DIEM PERIERVNT |
There may be some exaggeration in this book. I firmly believe thatEngland and her Allies entered this War with the noblest intentions. IfI have done less than justice to these, it is because my chief purposein this essay has been to express my equally firm belief that all thesefine emotions have been and are being exploited by the basest forms ofImperialism and Capitalism.
