The Duty of Men

War be the work of all men in time
 Be it spear in hand, or the bladed mind

 The siege against cowardice or vice
Against destruction drawn to entice

Seed the virtue of a life yet to gain
And no arrow meet you draw eternal pain
War is the business of every man
Within or without, his duty stands
