Fear Rarely Obtains Mastery. But you can't call this the fear of death. It is a purely physical resc- 'tion of danger and detonation. Per. isonally I believe that very few men. iindeed. tear death. The vast majority experience a more or less violent (iGiiiiii' shrinking from the pain of Ideath and wounds. especially when Pyy are obliged to be physically in- active, and when they have nothing else to think about. But this is a purely physical reaction which can be, and nearly always is, controlled by the mind. [4st of all there is the re- pulsion and loathing tor the whole busineas ot war, with its bloody ruth- lessness. its tiettdUtt ingenuity, and its insensate cruelty that comes to a man after a battle. when thetortured and dismembered dead lie strewn about the trench and the wounded groan from No-Mants-lAnd. But neither is that the fear of death. It is a reput. Mon which breeds hot anger more ot. ten than cold tear, reckless hatred of life more often than abject clinging to it. The cases where any sort ot tear, even for a moment. obtains the mas- tery of a man are very rare. I it is before en attack that a man in Imore liable to fear.
