RESURGENCE
Though he that, ever kind and true, Kept stoutly step with you, Your whole long, gusty lifetime through,
Be gone awhile before Be now a moment gone before Yet doubt not; soon the season shall restore
Your friend to you.
He has but turned the corner - still He pushes on with right good will Through mire and marsh, by dal~ and hill
The selfsame arduous way That selfsame, upland, hopeful way, That you and he, through many a doubtful day
Attempted still.
He is not dead - this friend - not dead, But in the path we mortals tread Got some few trifling steps ahead,
And nearer to the end; So that you, too, once past the bend, Shall meet again, as face to face, this friend
You fancy dead.
Push gaily on, brave heart, the while You travel fo~Nard mile by mile, He loiters, with a backward smile,
Till you can overtake; And strains his eyes to search his wake, Or, whistling as he sees you through the brake,
Waits on a stile.
/Heb.ll:4c/
Robert Louis Stevenson
