To the youth, the fighters seemed like animals thrown for a death struggle into a dark hole.
War, the red animal—war, the blood­drinking god—would have what it wanted.

In this place the youth felt that he was an outsider. This forgot­ ten part of the battleground was owned by the dead men, and he hur­ ried with the crazy fear that one of the bloody forms would rise and tell him to go.
The sound of death was far away. It seemed now that Nature had no ears. The scene gave him assurance. This was a place holding life. It was the religion of peace. It would die if its calm eyes were compelled to see the blood. He believed Nature to be a woman with a deep unwill­ingness to see suffering.
He was crushed beneath the feet of an iron injustice. He had proceeded with wisdom and sense, only to be defeated by hateful circumstances. A dull, animal­like revolt against his companions, against war, against fate, grew within him. He walked along with his head down, his brain suffering and full of despair.
Indifference of Nature
As he gazed around him, the youth felt a flash of surprise at the blue, pure sky and the sun shining on the trees and fields. It was won­derful that Nature had gone quietly ahead with her golden process in the middle of so much devilment.

He instantly saw that it would be impossible for him to escape from the regiment. It enclosed him. And there were iron laws of custom and law on four sides. He was in a moving box. As he realized this fact, he thought that he had never wished to come to the war. He had not joined the army by his own choice. He had been dragged by a merciless government. And now they were tak­ing him out to be killed.
There was a gentleness in the soft winds; and the whole feeling of darkness, he thought, was one of sympathy for himself in his sorrow.
War novel
"You be careful, Henry, and take good care of yourself. Don’t think you can beat the whole rebel army at the start, because you can’t. You’re just one little fellow among a lot of others, and you have to keep quiet and do what they tell you. I know how you are, Henry."
Henry etrafına bakındı. Tarlaların ötesinde, ağaçla­rın üstünü kaplıyan gökyüzünün böyle tertemiz, güne­şin pırıl pırıl parlaması onu şaşırtmıştı. Böyle kanlı bir olay karşısında tabiatın hiç istifini bozmadan bütün ih­tişamı ile durması insanı hakikaten şaşırtacak bir .hadi­ seydi.
