Title

A Hymn of Love Now

Description

"Germania to Tommy, guarding the Rhine: 'Do come to Berlin."

"You will we hate with a lasting hate,
We will never forgo our hate,
Hate by water and hate by land,
Hate of the head and hate of the hand,
Hate of the hammer and hate of the crown,
Hate of seventy millions, choking down.
We love as one, we hate as one,
We have one foe, and one alone -
England!
- Hymn of Hate, by Ernst Lissauer."

"It is not our duty to hate individual Englishmen. No, we must go far beyond that. We must hate the very essence of everything English. An abysmal gulf yawns between the two nations which can never, and must never, be bridged over - Professor Gombart, of Berlin."
