Lewis Merrill appeared to gain in confidence-and even in stature. Although he didn’t look exactly comfortable beside the headless Mary Magdalene‚ he stood so close to her that the podium light shone on

whilst fighting on the battlefield. Wilfred Owen experiences many inner conflicts during his time in the war.
