1 quote

Out of the strain of the Doing,
Into the peace of the Done;
Out of the thirst of Pursuing,
Into the rapture of Won.
Out of gray mist into brightness,
Out of pale dusk into dawn,—
Out of all wrong—into rightness,
We from these fields shall be gone.
"Nay," say the saints," not gone, but come,
Into eternity's Harvest-Home!"
