I am currently working on draft Notes on “Epitaphs of the War” for the New
Readers Guide.
Carrington’s biography says: “His ‘Epitaphs of the War’, ‘naked cribs
of the Greek anthology’ he called them, include much comment.”
(page 548 of the Pelican paperback edition.) But Carrington does not give a
source for this direct quote from Kipling.
Do any of you knowledgeable people know where it comes from? Perhaps a
letter? (i do not have access to Pinney.)
