Poems by Henry Lawson
A Study in the 'Nood'
... half-maston a stickan evident flag of distress ...
The Imported Servant
... Its the boss and the missus for mistress and master, ...
'Bound for the Lord-Knows-Where'
... And theyll come back wild, or theyll come back tamed ...
The Triumph of the People
... Lo, there springs a common garden, where the foot of Greed hath trod, ...
The Rovers
... Tis signed and sealed by Fate ...
The Army of the Rear
... Theyre brutes, so say the wealthy, and by steel must be dismayed ...
Dawgs of War
... As dusky white as their winters night, the Russian wolf-hounds come! ...
What Have We All Forgotten?
... We have worked in the glorious weather, we have garnered and reaped and shorn ...
When Youre Bad in Your Inside
... Till shes shifted all obstructions, and has soothed your keenest pain ...
The Men Who Live It Down
... Theres a heart thats worth a million and a head thats worth a crown, ...
Keeping His First Wife Now
... Tis a terrible life for the second young wife, ...
The Skyline Riders
... A thud and a thud and a flash like blood! ...
The World is Full of Kindness
... Red blood, kind hearts, and love ...
The Peace Maker
... From saddened eyes the hells own glare! ...
Clinging Back
... Though he writes the peoples grammar, and he spreads the peoples clack, ...
