Hello, down-under!(Gee, does that mean I'm up-over?),
Perhaps the context of the poem negates this explanation,
but using 'condemn', not 'contemn', sounds to me as though
the author wanted to get across the idea that, no matter
how much time goes by, the deeds of the fallen will remain
at least blameless (if not glorified).
What is Anzac, please? Sounds like a medicine to me! Thanks, Jackie
