"Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting;

The soul that rises with us, our life's star,

Hath had elsewhere its setting,

And cometh from afar.

Not in entire forgetfulness

And not in utter nakedness,

But trailing clouds of glory do we come

From God who is our home."

—Wordsworth.

"Two shall be born the whole wide world apart,

And speak in different tongues and have no thought

Each of the other's being, and no heed;

And these o'er unknown seas and unknown lands

Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death;

And all unconsciously shape every act

And bend each wandering step to this one end—

That, one day, out of darkness they shall meet

And read life's meaning in each other's eyes."

—Susan Marr Spalding.
