LIFE.
| Ever the undiscouraged, resolute, struggling soul of man; |
(Have former armies fail'd? then we send fresh armies—and
fresh again;)
|
| Ever the grappled mystery of all earth's ages old or new; |
Ever the eager eyes, hurrahs, the welcome-clapping hands, the
loud applause;
|
| Ever the soul dissatisfied, curious, unconvinced at last; |
| Struggling to-day the same—battling the same. |
