Must then all quests be naught, all voyage vam, All hopes the illusion of the whirling brain? Or are there eyes beyond life's veil that see Dreamers made strong to dream what is to be? Say, could aught else content thee? Which were best After so brief a battle; an endless rest- Or the ancient conflict rather to renew? By the old deeds strengthened mig~tier deeds to do? Till all thou art, nay, all thou hast dreamed to be, Proves thy mere root or embryon germ of thee. * * * * Who are in God·s hand in quietness can wait Age, pain, and death, and all that men call Fate. What matter if thou hold thy loved ones prest Still with closed arms upon thy yearning breast; Or, -with purged eyes behold them hand in hand Come in a vision from that lovely land; Or only with great heart and sure Deserve them, and await them, and endure; Knowing well, no shocks that fall, no years that flee Can sunder God from these, or God from thee. Nowise so far thy love from theirs can roam As past the mansions of His endless home. * * * * Not otherwise, to the hall of Hades dim He fares. Then if some summer eventide A message, not unlooked for, come to him, Bidding him rise up pres~ntly and ride Some few hours' journey, to a friendly home.
