EPIGRAPH: O summer dyy beside the joyous seal
O summer day so wondderful and white,
so full of gladness and so full of pain!
Forever and forever shalt thou be
To some the gravestone of a dead delight,
To some the landmark of a new domain.

EPIGRAPH: A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door,
And a word that shall echo for evermore!
For, borne on the night-wind of the Past,
Through all our history, to the last,
In the hour of darkness and peril and need,
The people will waken and listen to hear
The hurrying hoof-beats of that steed,
And the midnight message of Paul Revere.

EPIGRAPH: Febrig hjärna, febrig hjärta,
Sog, bedrövelse och smärta,
Ondska, ångest, galna skratt,
Detta som nu kommer att
Mänskan pina alla år
Ut i luften flugit har
Från sitt fänsliga förvar
Bara hoppet återstår.
FROM: The Masque of Pandora, (1875), Poem, US
