THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE

1944-1945

“A patriot's blood,

Well spent in such a strife, may earn indeed,

And for a time ensure to his loved land,

The sweets of liberty and equal laws;

But martyrs struggle for a brighter prize,

And win it with more pain. Their blood is shed

In confirmation of the noblest claim --

Our claim to feed upon immortal truth,

To walk with God, to be divinely free,

To soar, and to anticipate the skies.

Yet few remember them.”

William Cowper
