First Line: Chaos! That coincides with this militant purpose
Last Line: Germany's gift — all earth they would give thee, chaos.
Subject(s): Lusitania (ship)
Chaos! that coincides with this militant purpose.
Chaos! the heart of this earnest malignancy.
Chaos! that helps, chaos that gives to shatter
Mind-wrought, mind-unimagining energies
For topless ill, of dynamite and iron.
Soulless logic, inventive enginery.
Now you have got the peace-faring Lusitania,
Germany's gift — all earth they would give thee, Chaos.
