English poem
A Brave man looked forth and a figure he saw
by Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
A Brave man looked forth and a figure he saw; ’T was bound to my first—he surveyed it with awe. And as it was fast disappearing from sight, He began to my second with furious might. An often-fought foe, very hard to control, In the Scriptures we read of the fall of my whole.
