Today is (aeropagitica)'s day!
_-_Youth_(1893).jpg)
Because the road was steep and long
And through the dark and lonely lands,
God set upon our lips a song
And put a lantern in our hands.
Through miles on weary miles of night
That stretch relentless in our way
Our lantern burns serene and white,
An unexhausted cup of day.
O lights like wine, and lights of gold,
How dim your boasted splendors are!
This lamp of friendship that we hold
It is more starlike than a star!
