"Had he and I but met
By some old ancient inn,
We should have sat us down to wet
Right many a nipperkin!
"But ranged as infantry,
And staring face to face,
I shot at him as he at me,
And killed him in his place.
"I shot him dead because —
Because he was my foe,
Just so: my foe of course he was;
That's clear enough; although
"He thought he'd 'list, perhaps,
Off-hand like — just as I —
Was out of work — had sold his traps —
No other reason why.
"Yes; quaint and curious war is!
You shoot a fellow down
You'd treat if met where any bar is,
Or help to half-a-crown."

This is the narration of a soldier who returned from a war.
-
If the man ,the stranger he killed by shooting him,had been his friend they could have a drink and nice chat in an ancient inn.
-
But what to do? both of them selected the soldier job and their job to shoot .that's what he had done.Both stood face to face with guns aimed, He killed the stranger.
-
May be ,he was also poor,he didn't know,he sold his cart and horse and joined the army.So might the stranger too.
-
The war is very curious. and strange and very tragic.
-
He had to kill or shoot a stranger dead,If he would have been not there they could have met and drinks with him for half-a crown.

Know the different meanings of crown.
-
Here in this poem it is the British coin of the past. 5 shillings.
