TNPSC English Study Material- Poems

The Man he killed –By Thomas Hardy
"Had he and 1 but met
By some old ancient inn,
We should have sat us down to wet
Right many a nipperkin!"

But ranged as infantry, 
And staring face to face,
I shot at him as he at me,
And killed him in his place."

"I shot him dead because
Because he was my foe,
Just so: my foe of course he was;
That's clear enough; although
He thought he'd 'list, perhaps,
Off-hand like — just as I
Was out of work - had sold his traps
No other reason why."

Yes; quaint and curious war is!
You shoot a fellow down
You'd treat if met where any bar is
Or help You shoot a fellow down

You'd treat if met where any bar is   
You shoot a fellow down
You'd treat if met where any bar is

With half a crown
