part of love is to hold US by sweet and
strong ties to the Rock cleft for US. There
we are safe. The rose is fair, for it draws
its life from the sun, which is the source of
that wealth of tint and shade which we
find in earth and sky: but how much more
do our souls need to draw from the Great
Sun of our Faith all that can make them
bright, and cause them to throw back the
rays they get from on high, so that their
light may shine clesr and we'll in the ways

of time, by the shore of a vast sea, to walk
with feet shod with peace, hands full of
trust, eyes set on the mark, and hearts
drawn by q great cord to the long rest,
where shall be no storm, but the full calm
for which we moan and pray, while the
waves press and the winds beat on our
weak barks.
