Soldiers

Famous quotes containing the word soldiers:

That brought its soldiers home for lack of money.”

Every blackning Church appalls,
And the hapless Soldiers sigh
Runs in blood down Palace walls”

And still the birds came, came in watery flocks,
Because it was spring and the birds had to come.
No doubt that soldiers had to be marching
And that drums had to be rolling, rolling, rolling.”
