Thread Name: Lyr Add: War poetry
Subject: RE: BS: GAS! GAS!
Its a bit of a thread creep, sorry....but we are getting a bit 'diverse' on this one anyway, but neither of those sites have the Kipling poem that includes the lines:

"Beware my Country when my Country grows polite"

& I cant remember its actual title, nor can I lay my hands on the book of Kiplings verse I've got that I KNOW has it in. Web Searches havent helped, though I've tried various lines from it.

Anyone help?
