Siegfried Sassoon on Mud

← Back to Siegfried Sassoon Profile
“O German mother dreaming by the fire, While you are knitting socks to send your son His face is trodden deeper in the mud.”
Siegfried Sassoon
“Mud and rain and wretchedness and blood. Why should jolly soldier-boys complain? God made these before the roofless Flood - Mud and rain.”
Siegfried Sassoon
