THE APPROACH
29

Arms to have and to use them,
And a soul to be made
Worthy if not worthy;
If afraid, unafraid!


To endure for a little,
To endure and have done:
Men I love about me,
Over me the sun!


And should at last suddenly
Fly the speeding death:
The four great quarters of heaven
Receive this little breath.
