Till China and Africa meet,
And the river jumps over the mountain
And the salmon sing in the street.”

“And now it is once more the tidal wave
That when it was swept by, leaves summits stained.
Oh, blood will out. It cannot be contained.”

Near where the charter’d Thames does flow,
And mark in every face I meet
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.”
