She had tears in her dress and also tears in her eyes. She gave Henry a note which he brought over to the group of young hunters. Read to the boys it caused great excitement. After a minute but rapid examination of their weapons, they ran down the valley. Does were standing at the edge of the lake making excellent targets.

26. Blightersby Siegfried Sassoon The House is crammed: tier beyond tier they grin And cackle at the Show, while prancing ranks Of harlots shrill the chorus, drunk with din; ‘We’re sure the Kaiser loves our dear old Tanks!’ I’d like to see a Tank come down the stalls, Lurching to rag-time tunes, or ‘Home, sweet Home’, And there’d be no more jokes in Music-halls To mock the riddled corpses round Bapaume.
27. Siegfried Sassoon English Soldier who served multiple campaigns in WWI Served on the western front during the worst part of the war Wrote this poem when he was home between tours after being injured Attended a Play and watched as the play mocked the Germans and the war He had lost some of his closest friends and was not happy how light hearted they were treating the war.
