The Beginnings
by Rudyard Kipling, 1917
aka The Wrath of the Awakened Sazon

It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.

They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.

Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not suddenly bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.

Rudyard Kipling wrote this poem in 1917 following the death of his son in France. He uses the Saxon as a metaphor for the English people. The target of that hate being the Germans whom Kipling was the first to refer to as 'Huns.'

I post this as a reminder to those who push, and keep pushing, their leftist agenda on the ever patient American people that we should not be pushed too far.

This is the United States. You can believe any whacked out thing you want, and live your life however wickedly you can conceive. Keep your ideas to yourself and we will leave you to your own self-destruction. Keep pushing your agenda on us and you may well be answering for your choices more than a little shy of the Pearly Gates.
