him to despair. Yet the most success
full men have more failures than sue

WHAT IS TO GOMEZ

'What is to come we know not,
But we know
That what has been was good
Was good to show,
Better to hide and best of all
To bear
We are the masters of the days
That were
We have loved, we have loved,
We have suffered even so.
Shall we not take the ebb
Who had the flow?
Life was our friend. Now
If it be our foe,
Dear, then it spoil and break US
Need we care
What is to conner
Let the great winds their worst
And widest blow,
Or the gold weather round US
Mellow slow,
We have fulfilled ourselves
And we can dare
And we can conquer
Tho we may not share
In the rich quiet of the afterglow,
What is to come"
