Poem by Rudyard Kipling


Chapter Headings. «The World Hath Set Its Heavy Yoke...»


The World hath set its heavy yoke
Upon the old white-bearded folk
	Who strive to please the King.
God’s mercy is upon the young,
God’s wisdom in the baby tongue
	That fears not anything.

PLAIN TALES FROM THE HILL
Tod’s Amendments.
