Rough Rhymes Of A Padre is a book of poetry written by Woodbine Willie and published in 1918. The author, whose real name was Geoffrey Anketell Studdert Kennedy, was a chaplain in the British army during World War I. The poems in this book reflect his experiences on the front lines and offer a unique perspective on the war. The poems are written in a rough, colloquial style that captures the gritty reality of life in the trenches. They deal with themes such as death, suffering, and the search for meaning in a world torn apart by war. The book also includes a preface by the author, in which he explains his motivation for writing the poems and his hope that they will help readers to understand the true cost of war. Rough Rhymes Of A Padre is a powerful and moving work that offers a glimpse into the heart of a man who witnessed the horrors of war firsthand.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
