Be Silent Always When You Doubt Your

To Wake The Soul By Tender Strokes Of Art, To Raise The Genius, And To Mend The Heart

Unblemish'd Let Me Live Or Die Unknown; Oh, Grant An Honest Fame, Or Grant Me None!

Who Combats Bravely Is Not Therefore Brave, He Dreads A Death-bed Like The Meanest Slave: Who Reasons Wisely Is Not Therefore Wise,- His Pride In Reasoning, Not In Acting Lies.

Who Sees With Equal Eye, As God Of All, A Hero Perish Or A Sparrow Fall, Atoms Or Systems Into Ruin Hurl'd, And Now A Bubble Burst, And Now A World.

The Vanity Of Human Life Is Like A River, Constantly Passing Away, And Yet Constantly Coming On.
