Failure

From the September 1886 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Therefore great heart, bear up! thou art but
type
Of what all lofty spirits endure, that fain
Would win men back to strength and peace
through Love.
Each has his lonely peak, and on each heart
Envy or scorn or hatred tears lifelong, with
vulture beak.
Yet the high Soul is left; and Patience, which
is but Hope grown wise;
And Love and Patience, which at last shall
overcome.
