		Dr Robert Laurence Binyon CH (August 10, 1869 – March 10, 1943) was an English poet.
		He was a Quaker and as such, a pacifist; during the First World War he worked as a medical orderly with the Red Cross on the Western Front.
		Both make sense in the context but it was 'condemn' which was included in the first printing of the poem on page 9 of The Times of 21 September 1914, and Binyon did not change it to 'contemn' when shown the proof of a later printing.
