What speech conceals, the spirit manifests. Who, winning without merit, wins in vain. Victor and vanquished equally may win. As oft in hut as mansion have their home. Who seek not gifts, but Giver-they shall find No sacrifice but changes part for whole.
Eternal life demands a selfless love.
Then let it shame thee unto higher things. Fare on, full sure that greatest glory comes, And swiftest growth, from serving humankind. A pauper he who boasts an empty name. But truth taught charity, gave me to see, As face to face one sees familiar friend, Why men are not alike in magnitude, Why souls, like stars, all differ in degree, And cannot show an even excellence, Unequal in their first nobility. To where love, beauty, wealth, power, glory, shine.
