What does it mean when Rudyard Kipling said the blame of those ye better the hate of those ye guard the cry of hosts ye humor mean?

This quote from Rudyard Kipling's poem "The White Man's Burden" suggests that those in positions of power or authority must bear the burden of blame and criticism from both those they try to help and those they try to control. They must also endure the burden of fulfilling the expectations and demands of those they are responsible for, even when it is challenging or unpopular.
