[NOTE: John Galsworthy said of this work: "The Burning Spear" was revenge of the nerves.Was it bad enough to have to bear the dreads and strains and griefs of war." Several years after its first publication he admitted authorship and it was included in the collected edition of his works D.W.]
"With a heart of furious fancies, Whereof I am commander, With a burning spear and a horse of air In the wilderness I wander;With a night of ghosts and shadows I summoned am to tourney Ten leagues beyond the wide world's end For me it is no journey."TOM O'BEDLAM
