8 c$ u& P" V3 D9 w, Y　　A face seen passing in a crowded street,
  S4 E3 v3 {8 N  o& J0 `　　A voice heard singing music, large and free;
, F' E  q  ^2 k! G4 ~　　And from that moment life is changed, and we
( ~, t; \7 i, g6 U' \9 Z　　Become of more heroic temper, meet
　　To freely ask and give, a man complete
' V* l3 x/ V# K  V　　Radiant because of faith, we dare to be
8 p' d7 a" _8 u9 c　　What Nature meant us. Brave idolatry
　　Which can conceive a hero! No deceit,
　　No knowledge taught by unrelenting years,
　　Can quench this fierce, untamable desire.

　　If what we worship fail us, still the fire
1 A7 ^( ?3 d) e% _+ W- _! K　　Burns on, and it is much to have believed.
