No aimless wanderers by the fiend Unrest	A
Goaded from shore to shore	B
No schoolmen turning in their classic quest	A
The leaves of empire o'er	C
Simple of faith and bearing in their hearts	D
The love of man and God	E
Isles of old song the Moslem's ancient marts	D
And Scythia's steppes they trod	E
Where the long shadows of the fir and pine	F
In the night sun are cast	G
And the deep heart of many a Norland mine	F
Quakes at each riving blast	G
Where in barbaric grandeur Moskwa stands	H
A baptized Scythian queen	I
With Europe's arts and Asia's jewelled hands	H
The North and East between	I
Where still through vales of Grecian fable stray	J
The classic forms of yore	B
And beauty smiles new risen from the spray	J
And Dian weeps once more	B
Where every tongue in Smyrna's mart resounds	H
And Stamboul from the sea	H
Lifts her tall minarets over burial grounds	H
Black with the cypress tree	H
From Malta's temples to the gates of Rome	K
Following the track of Paul	L
And where the Alps gird round the Switzer's home	K
Their vast eternal wall	L
They paused not by the ruins of old time	M
They scanned no pictures rare	N
Nor lingered where the snow locked mountains climb	M
The cold abyss of air	N
But unto prisons where men lay in chains	H
To haunts where Hunger pined	O
To kings and courts forgetful of the pains	H
And wants of human kind	O
Scattering sweet words and quiet deeds of good	P
Along their way like flowers	H
Or pleading as Christ's freemen only could	P
With princes and with powers	H
Their single aim the purpose to fulfil	L
Of Truth from day to day	J
Simply obedient to its guiding will	L
They held their pilgrim way	J
Yet dream not hence the beautiful and old	Q
Were wasted on their sight	R
Who in the school of Christ had learned to hold	Q
All outward things aright	Q
Not less to them the breath of vineyards blown	S
From off the Cyprian shore	B
Not less for them the Alps in sunset shone	S
That man they valued more	B
A life of beauty lends to all it sees	H
The beauty of its thought	Q
And fairest forms and sweetest harmonies	H
Make glad its way unsought	Q
In sweet accordancy of praise and love	T
The singing waters run	U
And sunset mountains wear in light above	T
The smile of duty done	U
Sure stands the promise ever to the meek	V
A heritage is given	U
Nor lose they Earth who single hearted seek	V
The righteousness of Heaven	U
