    “God is not dead; nor doth He sleep;
    The wrong shall fail,
    The right prevail,
    With peace on earth, good will to men.”

    To cover up the embers that still burn.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    And my youth comes back to me.
    And a verse of a Lapland song
    Is haunting my memory still:

    And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
