                                The Chances 



     I mind as 'ow the night afore that show Us five got talking�察 �we was 

in the know�察 �Over the top to´morrer�察�boys�察�we're for it�察�First wave we are�察�

first   ruddy   wave�察  �that's   tore   it。;   ;Ah   well�察─  �says   Jimmy�察     �an'   'e's   seen 

some scrappin'  ;There ain't more nor five things as can 'appen�察�Ye get 

knocked out�察�else wounded  bad or cushy�察�Scuppered�察�or nowt except yer 

feeling mushy。; 

     One of us got the knock´out�察�blown to chops。 T'other was hurt�察�like�察�

losin'   both   'is  props。  An'   one�察  �to  use  the   word   of  'ypocrites�察  �'Ad   the 

misfortoon   to be   took   by  Fritz。  Now  me�察  �I   wasn't scratched�察 �praise   God 

Almighty ��Though next time please I'll thank 'im for a blighty���察�But poor 

young Jim�察�'e's livin' an' 'e's not�察�'E reckoned 'e'd five chances�察�an' 'e's 'ad�察�

'E's wounded�察�killed�察�and pris'ner�察�all the lot  The ruddy lot all rolled in 

one。 Jim's mad。

                                         S。 I。 W。 



       ;I will to the King�察�And offer him consolation in his trouble�察�For that 

man   there   has   set   his   teeth   to   die�察�And   being   one   that   hates   obedience�察�

Discipline�察�and orderliness of life�察�I cannot mourn him。; W。 B。 Yeats。 



     Patting goodbye�察�doubtless they told the lad He'd always show the Hun 

a brave man's face�察�Father would sooner him dead than in disgrace�察 �Was 

proud   to   see   him   going�察  �aye�察  �and   glad。   Perhaps   his   Mother   whimpered 

how she'd fret Until he got a nice�察�safe wound to nurse。 Sisters would wish 

girls   too   could   shoot�察   �charge�察  �curse�察   �  。  。  Brothers     would    send   his 

favourite cigarette�察�Each week�察�month after month�察�they wrote the same�察�

Thinking him  sheltered in some Y。M。  Hut�察�Where  once  an   hour  a  bullet 

missed its aim And misses teased the hunger of his brain。 His eyes grew 

old   with   wincing�察  �and   his   hand   Reckless   with   ague。   Courage   leaked�察  �as 

sand From the best sandbags after years of rain。 But never leave�察�wound�察�

fever�察  �trench´foot�察  �shock�察  �Untrapped   the   wretch。 And   death   seemed   still 

withheld   For   torture   of   lying   machinally  shelled�察�At   the   pleasure   of   this 

world's Powers who'd run amok。 

     He'd seen men shoot their hands�察�on night patrol�察�Their people never 

knew。 Yet they were vile。 ;Death sooner than dishonour�察�that's the style� ─�

So Father said。 

       One   dawn�察  �our   wire   patrol   Carried   him。   This   time�察  �Death   had   not 

missed。 We   could   do   nothing�察 �but   wipe   his   bleeding   cough。   Could   it   be 

accident�拭     �Rifles   go   off   。   。   。   Not   sniped�拭  �No。   ��Later   they   found   the 

English ball。�� 

     It was the reasoned crisis of his soul。 Against the fires that would not 

burn him whole But kept him for death's perjury and scoff And life's half´ 

promising�察�and both their riling。 

     With him they buried the muzzle his teeth had kissed�察�And truthfully 

wrote the Mother ;Tim died smiling。;

    Move him into the sun  Gently its touch awoke him once�察�At home�察�

whispering of fields unsown。 Always it woke him�察�even in France�察�Until 

this morning and this snow。 If anything might rouse him now The kind old 

sun will know。 

    Think how it wakes the seeds  Woke�察�once�察�the clays of a cold star。 

Are limbs so dear´achieved�察�are sides Full´nerved�察 �still warm�察 �too hard 

to   stir�拭 �Was   it  for  this  the  clay  grew   tall�拭   �O  what   made   fatuous 

sunbeams toil To break earth's sleep at all�拭�

;When   this   war   is   done   The   men's   first   instinct   will   be   making   homes。 

Meanwhile their foremost need is aerodromes�察�It being certain war has just 

begun。 Peace would do wrong to our undying dead�察 �The sons we offered 

might regret they died If we got nothing lasting in their stead。 We must be 

solidly indemnified。 Though all be worthy Victory which all bought�察�We 

rulers sitting in this ancient spot Would wrong our very selves if we forgot 

The   greatest   glory   will   be   theirs   who   fought�察  �Who   kept   this   nation   in 

integrity。; Nation�拭 �The half´limbed readers did not chafe But smiled at 

one another curiously Like secret men who know their secret safe。 This is 

the thing they know and never speak�察�That England one by one had fled to 

France   ��Not   many   elsewhere   now   save   under   France��。   Pictures   of   these 

broad smiles   appear   each   week�察�And   people  in   whose   voice  real   feeling 

rings Say�此�How they smile� �They're happy now�察�poor things。

     His fingers wake�察�and flutter up the bed。 His eyes come open with a 

pull of will�察�Helped by the yellow may´flowers by his head。 A blind´cord 

drawls across the window´sill 。 。 。 How smooth the floor of the ward is� �

what a rug� �And who's that talking�察�somewhere out of sight�拭�Why are they 

laughing�拭  �What's   inside   that   jug�拭   �Nurse�   �Doctor� ─   �Yes�察  �all   right�察  �all 

right。; 

     But sudden dusk bewilders all the air  There seems no time to want a 

drink of water。 Nurse looks so far away。 And everywhere Music and roses 

burnt through crimson slaughter。 Cold�察�cold�察�he's cold�察�and yet so hot�此�And 

there's no   light   to   see   the   voices   by    No   time   to   dream�察  �and   ask      he 

knows not what。

Discs to make eyes close。 My glorious ribbons�拭 �Ripped from my own
