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.—
