Poem by Stephen Crane

"Have you ever made a just man?"

”Have you ever made a just man?”
”Oh, I have made three,” answered God,
”But two of them are dead,
And the third --
Listen! Listen!
And you will hear the thud of his defeat.”

1. To the maiden
2. Two or three angels
3. You tell me this is God?
4. Behold, from the land of the farther suns
5. Many red devils ran from my heart
