In the thunder that breaks ere we dream it is nigh;

In the fortune of war, in the plume of the brave,

In the surge, as it chafes on the crest of the wave,

I have ever been present, and ever must be,

Though the Universe had its beginning with me;

Though my fate is entwined with futurity too,

Yet I cannot last long, for I finish in you.
