Thus, in the stilly night, Ere Slumber's chain has bound me, Sad Memory brings the light Of other days around me.

Страница 28 - Come wealth or want, come good or ill, Let young and old accept their part, And bow before the Awful Will, And bear it with an honest heart, Who misses, or who wins the prize. Go, lose or conquer as you can ; But if you fail, or if you rise, Be each, pray God, a gentleman.
