George Essex Evans,
The Secret Key and Other Verses…
(1906)
“ Search for the Real which lies beneath the Seeming. Sing not of Peace! Sing thou of Toil, Of toil that moulds to-day the larger morrow! Move with stout heart on Life's great battle field And wear the motto "Progress" on thy shield. All that is best is won through toil and sorrow. Sing thou of Toil! Sing thou of Hope! Of Hope that lights the world to strong endeavour! Height beyond height but loftier summits show, Depth beneath depth reveals a depth below. Choose thou the best. There is no resting ever. ”
