It is remarkable for its poetry, for its delâ€" icacy, for the penetration of its psyâ€" chology. In many passages like this, Lawrence is poet as; well as warrior, chroniciervof deeds ‘as well as their doer: "In themorning Auda had us afoot before four, going uphill, till at last we climbed a ridge to a plain, with an illimitable view down hill to the east, where one gentle level after another slowly modulated into a disâ€" tance only to be called distance beâ€" eause it was a sober blue, and more hazy.
