ONCE again to wake, nor wish to sleep; Once again to feel, nor feel a pain! Rouse thy soul to watch and pray and weep Once again. Hope afresh, for hope shall not be vain: Start afresh along the exceeding steep Road to glory, long and rough and plain. Sow and reap: for while these moments creep, Time and earth and life are on the wane: Now, in tears; to-morrow, laugh and reap Once again. |
