“Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle-flags were
furled
In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.
There the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapped in universal law.”

The darken’d heart that beat no more;
They laid him by the pleasant shore,
And in the hearing of the wave.”

Than this world dreams of. Wherefore, let thy voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and day.”
