THE SOLUTION

To be, or not to be,—that is the question.—Shakespeare.

Why should man struggle here?

Is’t not the hope of something yet in life,

Some great achievement, some heroic feat

Which worth’ly succors to humanity,

That lights the dimmed, expiring spark of life

And bids us still seek in adversity

The means to atone for all our erring past

And strive to gain the haven of the blest,
