November, 1948

He talked with men who needed guide
But in this cause his law denied..
Unlost in deed he spent his days;
Unlost in purpose he gained light praise.

He suffered death, the man-made mess
In Palestine create distress
He measured pain when blood was spilled,
When youth lay dead, half "spent, half filled.

Pressed by the war jjf awful feud
He risked the Sternists bitter mood

And looked beyond the terror stage
Feeling- the temper of their rage,
