Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides - Rudyard Kipling
Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides - Rudyard Kipling: Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides
by
Rudyard Kipling
Preface
TO ALL to whom this little book may come—
����Health for yourselves and those you hold most dear!
Content abroad, and happiness at home,
����
And—one grand secret in your private ear:—
����
Nations have passed away and left no traces,
And History gives the naked cause of it—
����
One single, simple reason in all cases;
They fell because their peoples were not fit.

Articles: The Revenge of the Gods of the Copybook Headings: Kipling continues,
In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."
