Never Despair.

Tho opal and many rcrfumcd morn
From gloom is b, IN;
From out the sullcn depths Of cbDn night
The stars shcd light;
Cons In the rayless cavcrns of the earth
Have their slow birth:
From wonarous alchemy of winter hours
Como summer flowers;
The bitter waters of the restless main
Give gentle rain;
Fading bloom and dry seed bring once more
The years fresh store;
Just sequences of clashing tones afford
The full accord;
Through many ages, full Of strife and truth
Thought reaches Truth
Thro' efforts long in vain. prophetic need
Begets the deed;
Nerve, then, thy soul with hrrst need to cop,
Lilies brightest hope
Lies latent in Fatrs tcallrsl lair
Never Despair!
