	First World War.com - Prose & Poetry - Sir Henry Newbolt
		Newbolt came to dislike his most famous poem Vitai Lampada; during a 1923 speaking tour of Canada he was constantly called upon to recite the poem: “it’s a kind of Frankenstein’s Monster that I created thirty years ago,” he complained.
		Shortly after war was declared Newbolt, a friend and contemporary of Sir Douglas Haig, was recruited by the head of Britain’s War Propaganda Bureau (WPB), Charles Masterman, to help shape and maintain public opinion in favour of the war effort.
		Newbolt, who was appointed controller of telecommunications during the war, was knighted in 1915.

	Guardian \| Well-versed Sir Peter plays up
		Sir Peter is a man of the 19th century, and his every contribution reminds me of Sir Henry Newbolt's poem Vitai Lampada, The Torch Of Life, usually known by its chorus, "Play up!
		In this great work Sir Henry recorded a British defeat in the Sudan ("The sand of the desert is sodden red/ Red with the wreck of a square that broke" - or as Sir Peter, who has a slight speech impediment, would put it, "wed with the weck of a square that bwoke").
		Now, to be fair to Sir Peter, unlike Sir Henry, however resonant and poetical he might sound, he actually takes a different view of our battles against the savage hordes of the East.

	[minstrels] Vitaï Lampada -- Sir Henry Newbolt
		Newbolt is not, unfortunately, a poet with whose ideology I sympathize; he's too much the imperialist, buying into the "white man's burden" argument without displaying the sensitivity to other cultures of, say, Kipling or even Tennyson.
		His 'white man' is the starched, pucca sahib imperialist, educated at Eton/Harrow/Oxbridge, and well versed in the ways of the sahib, cricket, tennis and an education in the classics, with a ingrained belief that somehow, the English gentry was put at the pinnacle of creation, to liberate and uplift the rest of humanity.
		Newbolt himself, though he praised the conduct of his good friend Sir Douglas Haig, lived to regret the poem's fame.

	Drake's Drum
		Sir Henry Newbolt (1862-1938) was a lawyer who, in his thirties, transferred his attention to literature and became one of the best-loved poets of late-Victorian and Edwardian England.
		Newbolt was knighted by George V in 1915 for his contributions to Imperial elan.
		On the strength of this book, Newbolt was sometimes tagged as "the naval Kipling." The poem relates to a legend about the late 16th century (actually 1545-1595) English explorer and admiral Sir Francis Drake, who died while on a raiding expedition against Spanish settlements in the West Indies.

	[minstrels] He Fell Among Thieves -- Sir Henry Newbolt
		As a poet, Newbolt is very reminiscent of Kipling - he addresses many of the same subjects, in a similar tone, and if he is not quite as overt a minstrel of the Empire, its mindset nonetheless permeates his works.
		Also very characteristic are the scenes that pass through his mind as he lives his last night, and the fatalistic courage of a 'dream untroubled of hope' (lovely phrase, too).
		Without any overt appeal to the emotions, Newbolt does, I think, manage to evoke a sense of sadness and of loss; the technique is by no means a new one but he handles it effectively and without appearing cliched.

	TIME.com: -- Apr. 3, 1978 -- Page 2
		The poem is by Sir Henry Newbolt, who hymned the public-schoolboy officer to Victorian England in much the same manner as the better known Kipling glorified the private soldier.
		Bully lines they are, these from "Vitai Lampada," and Sir Henry wrote many other songs calculated to make men and women of British stock take pride in their heritage.
		Sir Henry Newbolt's lines from "Vitai Lampada," beginning "There's a breathless hush in the Close tonight," were so persistently dinned into us by school coaches and chaplains back in the '20s that we were driven to scabrous parodies, the mildest of which ended, "Throw up!
