Explore "Beast and Man in India" by Rudyard Kipling on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
They killed a child to please the Gods / In earth's young penitence, / And I have bled in that Babe's stead / Because of innocence.
I bear the sins of sinful men / That have no sin of my own, / They drive me forth to Heaven's wrath / Unpastured and alone.
