Excerpt from The White Plague, and Other Poems In Memoriam Herbert C. Hammond, Philanthropist God sends His angels still to bless the earth, Still sends His hero-hearted Paladins, Unheralded, unmarked, nor halo-crowned, They tread the ways of mankind woman-born, And pass us by in quiet garb and plain. So came he, valiant soldier of the King - Another Galahad, forgetting self, With heart aflame on Christ-like labor bent. Soldier of God, he sank to higher rise, In death serene, triumphant, glorified, And all the tender seeds of kindness strewn By him in secret places, now in bloom, Come trooping in white squadrons round his tomb To tell the sweetness of his fath'ring heart.
