Page 74 - I preach to you, then, my countrymen, that our country calls not for the life of ease, but for the life of strenuous •endeavor. The twentieth century looms before us big •with the fate of many nations. If we stand idly by, if we seek merely swollen, slothful ease, and ignoble peace, if we shrink from the hard contests where men must win at hazard of their lives and at the risk of all they hold dear, then the bolder and stronger...

Page 203 - tween thee and me." Both be His care. One arm round thee, and one round me Will keep us near. I sigh sometimes to see thy face, ^ But since this may not be, I'll leave thee to the care of Him Who cares for thee and me.

Page 203 - God keep watch t'ween thee and me," This is my prayer; He looks thy way. He looketh mine. And keeps us near. I know not where thy road may lie, Or which way mine may be; If mine will lead through parching sands, And thine beside the sea; Yet God keeps watch 'tween thee and me.
