DEDICATED TO
THOSE WHO FELL ON THE
GALLIPOLI PENINSULA
Οἱ δ’ αὐτοῦ περὶ τεῖχος
θήκας Ἰλιάδος γᾶς
εὔμορφοι κατέχουσιν’ ἐχθρὰ δ’ ἔχοντας ἔκρυψεν.
Beside the ruins of Troy they lie buried,
those men so beautiful; there they have their
burial-place, hidden in an enemy’s land.
_The Agamemnon, 453–455._
Ἀνδρῶν ἐπιφανῶν πᾶσα γῆ τάφος, καὶ οὐ στηλῶν
μόνον ἐν τῇ οἰκείᾳ σημαίνει ἐπιγραφὴ, ἀλλὰ
καὶ ἐν τῇ μὴ προσηκούσῃ ἄγραφος μνήμη
παρ᾽ ἑκάστῳ τῆς γνώμης μᾶλλον ἢ τοῦ ἔργου
ἐνδιαιτᾶται.
Of conspicuous men the whole world is the
tomb, and it is not only inscriptions on
tablets in their own country which chronicle
their fame, but rather, even in distant
lands, unwritten memorials living for ever,
not upon visible monuments, but in the hearts
of mankind.
