Two Canadian Memorials

Original Text
"Epitaphs of the War," Rudyard Kipling's Verse: Definitive Edition (London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1940): 388.
I
1We giving all gained all.
2    Neither lament us nor praise.
3Only in all things recall,
4    It is Fear, not Death that slays.
II
1From little towns in a far land we came,
2    To save our honour and a world aflame.
3By little towns in a far land we sleep;
4    And trust that world we won for you to keep!
