TEXT IV

	I know I shall meet my fate
	Somewhere among the clouds above;
	Those that I fight I do not hate,
	Those that I guard I do not love;
5	My country is Kiltartan Cross,
	My countrymen Kiltartan’s poor,
	No likely end could bring them loss
	Or leave them happier than before.
	Nor law, nor duty bade1 me fight,
10	Nor public men, nor cheering crowds,
	A lonely impulse of delight
	Drove to this tumult in the clouds;
	I balanced all, brought all to mind,
	The years to come seemed waste of breath,
15	A waste of breath the years behind
	In balance with this life, this death.
