Robert
Burns, Scottish poet (1751-1796)
You have no enemies, you say?
Alas, my friend,
the boast is poor.
He who has mingled in the fray
of duty
that the brave endure, must
have made foes.
If you have none, small is the
work that you have done.
Charles MacKay, English Chartist Poet, (l814-l889)
You've hit no traitor on the
hip.
You've dashed no cup from
perjured lip.
You've never turned the wrong
to right.
You've been a coward in the
fight.
