She ben. The strenuous heavens

To make a man to meet the mortal need.
She took the tried clay Of the common

man that matched the mountains and
compelled
The stars to look our way and honor US
The color of the ground was in him, the
red earth;
The tang and odor Of the primal things
The rectitude and patience of the rocks;
The gladness of the wind that shakes the
corn,
The courage Of the bird that dares the
sea;
The justice of the rain that loves all
leaves;
The pity of the snow that hides all scars;
The loving kindness of the wayside we'll:
The tolerance and equity Of light
That gives as freely to the shrinking weed
AS to the great oak flaring to the wind
To the graves low hill as to the Matter

That shoulders out the sky.
And so he came.
From prairie cabin UP to capitol,
One fair ideal led our chieftain on.
Forevermore he burned to do his deed
With the fine stroke and gesture Of q
king.
He built the rail pile as he built the state,
Pouring his splendid strength through
every blow:
The conscience Of him testing every
stroke
To make his deed the measure Of q man.
So came the captain. with the mighty
heart;
And when the step Of earthquake shook
the house.
Wrenching the rafters from their ancient
hold,
He held the ridge pole up and spiked again
The rafters of the home. He held his
Held the long purpose like a growing

Held on through blame and faltered not

And when he fell in whirlwind he went

AS when a kingly cedar. green with
boughs,
Goes down with a great shout upon the
hills
And leaves a lonesome place against the
sky.

Yet grant me but this single prayer
And I'll not crave for more.
For there's one word that thou canst
speak
To me, thy Valentine;
'Twould make me richer than a king
'Twould make the whole world mine.
GOULD with diamonds deck thy hair.
~ Or load thine arms with gold,
There's naught on earth that's rich or
rare
But should it's charms unfold
To grace thy form. but I've no gems.
Nor gold. nor jewels fine;
Yet there's one word which thou canst

'Twould make the whole world mine.
CPEAK, then! Thy lover listening waits
- A beggar at thy door.

A kingdom, aye. and more.

But, by st. Valentine,
