The men that worked for England <br />They have their graves at home: <br />And bees and birds of England <br />About the cross can roam. <br /> <br />But they that fought for England, <br />Following a falling star, <br />Alas, alas for England <br />They have their graves afar. <br /> <br />And they that rule in England, <br />In stately conclave met, <br />Alas, alas for England, <br />They have no graves as yet.<br /><br />Gilbert Keith Chesterton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/elegy-in-a-country-churchyard/
