Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
But limped on, blood-shod.

Dulce et Decorum Est (1917)

Bent double like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.

Dulce et Decorum Est (1917)
