By managing with skill the rabble-rout

For which we labor (never mind the name—

People or populace, for praise or blame)

Making them understand—their heaven, their hell,

Their every hope and fear is ours as well.

Man's cause—what other can we have at heart?

Whence follows that the necessary part

High o'er Man's head we play,—and freelier breathe

Just that the multitude which gasps beneath

May reach the level where unstifled stand
