316-318 may be used.

[14] Note: The teacher might read aloud a part of the _Ode in Time of
Hesitation_, by Moody. In its entirety it is almost too difficult for
the pupils to get much out of; but it has some vigorous things to say
about the war in the Philippines.

[15] TO THE TEACHER: It will probably be better for the pupils to study
this poem in class than to begin it by themselves.
