Allowing Evil To Triumph
Number of words: 716 - Number of pages: 3

.... men did not attempt to stop the evil. As a consequence for this lack of action, each person was killed because he serves the Hangman best.

Again, in the fifty-third stanza: "You gaze To-Day, while You are You-how then/ Tomorrow, You when shall be You no more?"

Ano .....
