<h3> The Indifferent Ones<br/> </h3>
<p class="poem">
Unmoved they sit by the stream of life<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">And its blood-red tide to the sea goes down,</SPAN><br/>
While the hosts are borne through the surging strife<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">To a hero's death and a martyr's crown.</SPAN><br/></p>
<p class="poem">
They pay no toll of their gold or blood;<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">For them 'tis a pageant and naught beside;</SPAN><br/>
So they calmly dream by the reeking flood,<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">While the sun goes down in the crimson tide.</SPAN><br/></p>
