Notes

  • Epigraph: No, no, not that - it's bad to think of war,
    When thoughts you've gagged all day come back to scare you;
    And its been proved that soldiers don't go mad
    Draw a deep breath; stop thinking; count fifteen,
    And you're as right as rain...
    Why won't it rain?.....
    I wish there'd be a thunder-storm to-night,
    With bucketsful of water to sluice the dark,
    And make the roses hang their dripping heads.
    (from Repression of War Experience, Siegfried Sassoon, July 1917)
