A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.
Winston Churchill
O Lord our God, help us tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patri-ot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded writ-ing in apin; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the herats of their un-offending widows with unavail-ing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with their little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirts, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it.
