Owen wrote a number of his most famous poems at Craiglockhart, including several drafts of "Dulce et Decorum Est", "Soldier's Dream", and "Anthem for Doomed Youth".

As for the probability, I owned that that might admit some question; but as to the want of a moral, I told her that in my own judgement the poem had too much; and that the only, or chief fault, if I might say so, was the obtrusion of the moral sentiment so openly on the reader as a principle or cause of action in a work of such pure imagination.
