In "The Twilight o.' the Kings
MI33 Flint blends, on the theme of
"Gotterdammerung," tlie old idea
of dlvina retribution for past wrongs
with the new and not unpopular bfc
j lief that this war may be the last
great war that the world will know.
The poem is quoted from the -New
York Times.
"THE TWILIGHT OF THE KlX<o"
By Annie Johnson Flint.
Three Kings there be, and one is
mad
And one is weak and one is olu,
And ail are blind—they will not sea
The Hand that writes a dooa.*
foretold;
And all are deaf—they will not hear
The Voice that speaks, the Word
it brings—
Voice of the People and of God:
'"I his 1s the twilight of the
Kings!"
From mountain-pass, from fertlio
plain
Where harvests wait the reapers'
tread.
From vineyards on the sunny
_ slopes
Where dressers of the vines lie
dead,
From homes where starving chil
dren wait
The father'o coming—and in v. -u,
From pallid cheeks and volcaless
lips
Of manhood wrecked and man
hood slain.
From smold'ring roofs and blaclctn
ed walls.
From idle wheels of labor stilled,
From ancleut battle-fields, and new,
That reek of blood unjustly splli
ed,
A solemn Voice that cries alouud.
Through all the world the portent
rings:
"The cword shall free us from the
Bword—
"This Is the twilight of the
Kings!"
It is the twilight! Spent the day
Of 6plendor, tyranny, and crime,
The long, long day that had its
birth
Within the far-off dawn of Time -
The day of Iron hand and heel,
Of bondage, cruelty, and wo.
The day of Babylon and Rome,
Of Louis, Herod, Pharaoh.
The night that follows on that day
Across the world its shadow |
flings;
The outworn dynasties shall pass— i
It Is the twilight of the Kings! j
Fast falls the night; beyond its j
gloom
There shines he dawn of better
things— I
The light of liberty and peace,
Of Justice higher than the King3. I
When breaks that dawn, no more
one man
Shall move a million at his will,
Like pawns upon a chessboard play
ed.
To vaunt his power and his skill; I
No more one man, by "right divine,"
On age-old wronga his House shall
build.
No more the slogan "Might toakes
right"
Shall serve his selfish greed to
gild.
Their glory fades as fades the day, j
In fire and blood their sun has i
set, j
Tho in the swiftly daik'nign skies j
A smoky crimson llgners yet;
For hopeless, when the tide haa .
turned.
To fight agaainst the trend of j
things,
Tho thrones are rocking to their
fall
Tt is tho twilight of the Kings!
