The Truth-is Stirless

780

The Truth-is stirless-
Other force-may be presumed to move-
This-then-is best for confidence-
When oldest Cedars swerve-

And Oaks untwist their fists-
And Mountains-feeble-lean-
How excellent a Body, that
Stands without a Bone-

How vigorous a Force
That holds without a Prop-
Truth stays Herself-and every man
That trusts Her-boldly up-
