8. ۸ What had I on earth to do

11. ۱۱ --Being--who?

13. ۱۳One who never turned his back but marched ... forward,
14. ۱۴ Never doubted clouds would break,
15. ۱۵Never dreamed, tho' right were worsted, wrong would triumph,
16. ۱۶ Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better,
17. ۱۷ Sleep to wake.
18. ۱۸
19. ۱۹No, at noonday in the bustle of man's work-time
20. ۲۰ Greet the unseen with a cheer!
21. ۲۱Bid him forward, ... and back as either should be,
22. ۲۲ "Strive and thrive!" cry "Speed,--fight on, fare ever
23. ۲۳ There as here!"
