"Brother Square-Toes" - Rewards and Fairies 
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs arid blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all 
men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or being lied about, 
don't deal in lies, or being hated, don't give way to hating, and yet don't look too good, or talk to wise: If you can 
dream-and not make dreams your master; If you can think-and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph 
and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves 
to make a trap for fools, or watch the things you gave your live to, broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools: 
Ifvou can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it on one turn of pitch-and toss and lose, and start again at your 
beginnings and never breathe a word about your loss; Ifvou can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn 
long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the iVill which says to them: Hold on!" If you 
can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with Kirigs-nor lose the common touch, if neither foes nor loving friends 
can hurt you, if all men count with you, but none too much; ifvou can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth 
of distance run, yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, and-which is more-you'll be a Man, my son!

God knew Robert was weary, 
He knew he had stood the test; 
He stretched His arms out for him, 
And took him home to rest. 
Our hearts are sadden to lose him, 
But he did not go alone; 
Because part of us went with him 
When God took him home.
