Establishing the majesty of right.

Our loyal hearts still burn with sacred fire,

Our spirits' wings are plumed for upward flight.

NEW YEAR, 1920

The curtain rises on the all-world stage,

The play is unannounced; no prologue's word

Gives hint of scene, or voices to be heard;

We may be called with tragedy to rage,

In comedy or farce we may disport,

With feverish melodrama we may thrill,
