That we may lift from out of dust

A voice as unto him that hears,
A cry above the conquered years
To one that with us works, and trust,

With faith that comes of self-control,
The truths that never can be proved
Until we close with all we loved,
And all we flow from, soul in soul.

HE epilogue of the poem concludes with a prophetic vision of "the crowning race”–

Of those that, eye to eye, shall look

On knowledge; under whose command.
Is Earth and Earth's, and in their hand
Is Nature like an open book;

No longer half-akin to brute,

For all we thought and loved and did,
And hoped, and suffered, is but seed
Of what in them is flower and fruit;

Whereof the man, that with me trod
This planet, was a noble type
Appearing ere the times were ripe,
That friend of mine who lives in God,

That God which ever lives and loves,
One God, one law, one element,

And one far-off divine event,
To which the whole creation moves.

Alfred Tennyson
