To Train For War

How does your stature look,
As you stand beneath the rule?
Do you scale with heavens book;
And the pupils in lifes school?

How does your height compare,
Says the Master there to train;
Have you wind to climb the stair,
Plus a knowledge and a brain?

How’s the obstacle course,
Satan puts within your way,
Do you feel up with the force,
Prime with courage for the fray?

Do you know what you weigh,
On the blessed side of right,
Are you faithful to obey,
Like a noble gallant knight?

H. E. Crane
