_The_
CITY OF COMRADES
BY
BASIL KING
_Author of_
“THE INNER SHRINE” “THE WILD OLIVE”
“THE WAY HOME” “THE HIGH HEART” ETC.
_I dream’d in a dream, I saw a city invincible to the attacks
of the whole of the rest of the earth;_
_I dream’d that was the new City of Friends;_
_Nothing was greater there than the quality of robust love—it
led the rest;_
_It was seen every hour in the actions of the men of that city,_
_And in all their looks and words._
—WALT WHITMAN.
