"When earth as if on evil dreams Looks……" — John Greenleaf Whittier

"When earth as if on evil dreams Looks back upon her wars, And the white light of Christ outstreams From the red disc of Mars, His fame, who led the stormy van Of battle, well may cease; But never that which crowns the man Whose victory was peace."

John Greenleaf Whittier
