TRUTH by FREDERIC ROWLAND MARVIN

First Line: THERE DANGER DWELLS WHERE DWELLS NOT TRUTH
Last Line: THE SOUL THAT KNOWS HER NOT IS DEAD.
Subject(s): HONESTY; TRUTH;

THERE danger dwells where dwells not Truth,
Nor gold, nor gems, nor rosy youth,
Shall friendly be, when she hath fled;
The soul that knows her not is dead.
