DEEP-DOWN THINGS
Sam Walter Foss, in “Songs of the Average Man,” is the author of this assuring verse:
The deep-down things are strong and great,
Firm-fixt, unchangeable as fate,
Inevitable, inviolate,
The deep-down things.
The deep-down things! All winds that blow,
All seething tides that foam and flow
May smite but can not overflow
The deep-down things.
