Question
In a poem, people with this profession sleep “in the plastering slime” before “the jolly old rain” arrives. One of these people “escapes down some profound dull tunnel” to see an “encumbered sleeper” in the poem “Strange Meeting.” The speaker of a poem about these people describes “white eyes writhing” on “his hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin.” These people “saw sunset glow” before ending up where “poppies blow.” A poem about these people titled for a Horace quote describes “guttering” and “choking” after cries of “Gas! Gas!” For 10 points, name these people memorialized in John McCrae’s “In Flanders Fields” and Wilfred Owen’s “Dulce et Decorum Est.” ■END■
