And stretch my hand to find that other hand.

I question of th' eternal bending skies

That seem to neighbor with the novice earth;

But they roll on, and daily shut their eyes

On me, as I one day shall do on them,

And tell me not the secret that I ask.

NOT THEY WHO SOAR

Not they who soar, but they who plod

Their rugged way, unhelped, to God

Are heroes; they who higher fare,
