Стр. 132 - O we can wait no longer, We too take ship O soul, Joyous we too launch out on trackless seas, Fearless for unknown shores on waves of ecstasy to sail, Amid the wafting winds, (thou pressing me to thee, I thee to me, O soul,) Caroling free, singing our song of God, Chanting our chant of pleasant exploration.
Стр. 223 - Each man to himself and each woman to herself, is the word of the past and present, and the true word of immortality; No one can acquire for another— not one, Not one can grow for another— not one. The song is to the singer, and comes back most to him...
