Let your ships he harder than the rocks, swifter than the message-bird, more buoyant than the swan, and as enduring as the Mestua Mountain."

Precious as the fat on the serpent's head is the marrow of thy bones. Firm as the Mestua Mountain is thy will. In thy goodness thy maker must rejoice. Thy constant love doth make me live many lives in one; a day seemeth a year, and a year but a day. Rise, wet thy feet, and onward let us go to Stainer's fount. There to calm our thirst before singing to our Maker's praise.
