    Through the blizzard snow unseen,
    All unharmed by hail of lead,
    With a step like snow so light,

    Crowned in wreath of roses white,
    Christ leads onward as they go.”

    That thou hast power to shake my manhood thus,
    That these hot tears, which break from me perforce,
    Should make thee worth them.”
