Sharpe’s Honour is for Jasper Partington
and Shona Crawford Poole,
who marched from the very start
We’ll search every room for to find rich treasure,
And when we have got it we’ll spend it at leisure.
We’ll card it, we’ll dice it, we’ll spend without measure,
And when it’s all gone, bid adieu to all pleasure.
From: The Grenadier’s March (Anon), Quoted in THE RAMBLING SOLDIER, edited by Roy Palmer, Penguin Books, 1977.
‘Men huddled on hillsides, anxiously surveying the enemy guns trained against them and steeling themselves for some kind of counter-attack. They are beautifully observed and, in their evocation of quiet heroism, pulse with rare humanity’
Sunday Telegraph
