There’s a fate in love and a fate in fight,

And the best of us all go under—

And whether we’re wrong or whether we’re right,

We win, sometimes, to our wonder.

Here’s luck!

That we may not yet go under!

With a steady swing and an open brow

We have tramped the ways together,

But we’re clasping hands at the crossroads now

In the Fiend’s own night for weather;
