He that planteth a tree is the servant of God,
He provideth a kindness for many generations,
And faces that he hath not seen shall bless him.

And crowns the triumph of the cloudy host
In rolling lines retreating to the coast.

But often faltering feet Come surest to the goal; And they who walk in darkness meet The sunrise of the soul. - Henry van Dyke
