"There is no trade nor employment but the young man following it may become a hero,
And there is no object so soft but it makes a hub for the wheel'd universe,
And I say to any man or woman, let your soul stand cool and composed before a million universes."
* * * * *
Browning's Christian Creed:
"That face far from vanishes, ever grows
Or decomposes only to recompose
Become my universe that feels and knows."
* * * * *
Emerson—
"I am the owner of a sphere
Of the seven stars and solar year
Of Caeser's hand and Plato's brain
Of the Lord Christ's heart and Shakespeare's strain."

And so the star that shines from above moves on, calling all noble souls to move out by sea and land—with the God who shepherds us with His love and joy everywhere as the guide—to the grandest work of human history, the work of essentially unifying the globe. And as they go forward with this stupendous task, they will not forget to pluck the flowers by the wayside, look into the faces of children and take the hand of their fellows; but rather they will do it with a grander simplicity and a better humanity.
