"JUSTICE."

A NEW POEM BY RUDYARD KIPLING.

The following new poem composed by Mr. Rudyard Kipling has been made available for publication by the Australian Press Association:-

Across a world where all men grieve, And, grieving, strive the care, The great days range like tides, and leave

Our dead on every shore.

Heavy the lead we undergs,

And our own hands prepare,

If we have perley with the Poe, The band our Sons must bear

Before we lose the word

That bids new worlds to birth, Needs must we loosen first the sword

Of Justice upon earth;

Or else ali is vain

Since life on earth began, And the spent world sinks back again,

Hopoless of God and man.

A Peoples and the King

Through ancient sin gruw strong, Because they feared no reckoning- Would set no bound to wrong; But now thoir hour is past,

And we who bore it find Evil incarnate held at last To answer to Mankind.

For agony and spoil

Of nations bent to dust,

For poisoned air and tortured suit

And cald commanded lust, And every secret woe,

The shuddering waters saw- Willed and fulfiled by high and low-

Let them relearn the law

That when the dooms are read,, Nor high or low shall my-- My haughty, or my humble, hood Has saved me in this day.” That till the end of Time,

Their remnant shall recall Their father's old confederate crime

Availed them not at all.

That neither Schools, nor Priests,

Nor Kings, may build again

A people with the heart of boasts lade wise concerning men. Whereby our dead shall op

In honour unbetrayed, And we in faith and honour koop That peace for which they paid.
