THE BALLAD OF THE QUEST
"Some day," I said, "before Life is over,
I will shut my house door, and will be a rover."
Under the sky where the great stars roll,
I will search for my faith, and search for my soul.
I have fared without them this many a day
Through the market-place of the world's high-way.
The truth I gave in exchange for a lie,
And I bartered my dreams to a passer-by.
