The White Man's Burden?

Question

In 1899, Rudyard Kipling wrote a poem called "The White Man's Burden." "The White Man's Burden" is a view of the world used to justify imperialism, especially in Africa. Does anyone have a link to it in something other than Old English. Thanks.

This isn't "old" English or even middle English - it's just a style of English used at the time he wrote this; very formal, and using many of the pronouns one would find in the King James Bible.
