And so it was planned that morning. |
|
An armed attack, units forging. |
|
"Cannons, fire at will and halt escape. We'll help them if we can, prisoners of circumstance." |
|
A few arrived - weak, torn, tongue tied. |
|
They told of eyes desperate and blind. |
|
" Please now send troops. They're dying in the fields. We've seen the view." |
|
Haste on this mile has formed our constant reprise, it's given promise for now. |
|
We took the hill, men they laid still. |
|
And in the ground spirit flags found. |
|
"Hands up prisoners of circumstance. We'll get you out alive but you've got to fight." |
|
Help us if you can, arm our minds. |
|
Concede to solid plans of first desires |
