BE OF GOOD CHEER.
THE PERFECTION OF ART.
In the elder days of Art, Builders wrought with greatest care Each minute and unseen part; For the gods see everywhere.
Let us do our work as well, Both the unseen and the seen ; Make the house, where gods may dwell,
Beautiful, entire, and clean. Else our lives are incomplete, Standing in these walls of Time, Broken stairways, where the feet Stumble as they seek to climb.
Build today, then, strong and sure, With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure Shall to-morrow find its place. H. W. Longfellow
