“So long as faith with freedom reigns
And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains
To leaven lowly lives;
While there is one untrodden tract
For intellect or will,
And men are free to think and act,
Life is worth living still.”

As Spring revives the year,
And hails us with the cuckoo's song,
To show that she is here;”

As there is wrong to right,
Wail of the weak against the strong,
Or tyranny to fight;”

Chance

“People living and dead, things past and present, all are contributories to that diminutive stream, oneself; a reflection which is essentially consoling, since it associates one with the sum of things and prevents one from living in barren isolation.”
