    The soger frae the wars returns,
    The sailor frae the main,

    Never to meet again.

    Catholics are necessarily at war with this age. That we are not more conscious of the fact, that we so often endeavour to make an impossible peace with it—that is the tragedy. You cannot serve God and Mammon.
    Eric Gill (1882–1940)
