what God deigns to try with sorrow He means not to decay to´morrow�察�
But through that fiery trial last When earthly ties and bonds are past�察�What
slighter things dare not endure Will make our Love more safe and pure。
Love shall be purified by Pain�察�And Pain be soothed by Love again�此�So
let us now take heart and go Cheerfully on�察 �through joy and woe�察 �No
change the summer sun can bring�察�Or the inconstant skies of spring�察�Or the
bleak winter's stormy weather�察�For we shall meet them�察�Love�察�together� �

VERSE�此 �THE PILGRIMS
The way is long and dreary�察�The path is bleak and bare�察�Our feet are
worn and weary�察�But we will not despair。 More heavy was Thy burthen�察�
More desolate Thy way�察 � Oh Lamb of God who takest The sin of the
world away�察�Have mercy on us。
The snows lie thick around us In the dark and gloomy night�察�And the
tempest wails above us�察�And the stars have hid their light�察�But blacker was
the darkness Round Calvary's Cross that day�察 � Oh Lamb of God who
takest The sin of the world away�察�Have mercy on us。
Our hearts are faint with sorrow�察�Heavy and hard to bear�察�For we dread
the bitter morrow�察�But we will not despair�此�Thou knowest all our anguish�察�
And Thou wilt bid it cease�察 � Oh Lamb of God who takest The sin of the
world away�察�Give us Thy Peace� �

VERSE�此 �INCOMPLETENESS
Nothing resting in its own completeness Can have worth or beauty�此�
but alone Because it leads and tends to farther sweetness�察�Fuller�察�higher�察�
deeper than its own。
Spring's real glory dwells not in the meaning�察�Gracious though it be�察�of
her blue hours�察�But is hidden in her tender leaning To the Summer's richer
wealth of flowers。
Dawn is fair�察�because the mists fade slowly Into Day�察�which floods the
world with light�察�Twilight's mystery is so sweet and holy Just because it
ends in starry Night。
Childhood's smiles unconscious graces borrow From Strife�察 �that in a
far´off future lies�察�And angel glances ��veiled now by Life's sorrow�� Draw
our hearts to some beloved eyes。
Life is only bright when it proceedeth Towards a truer�察 �deeper Life
above�察 �Human Love is sweetest when it leadeth To a more divine and
perfect Love。
Learn the mystery of Progression duly�此 �Do not call each glorious
change�察�Decay�察�But know we only hold our treasures truly�察�When it seems
as if they passed away。
Nor dare to blame God's gifts for incompleteness�察 �In that want their
beauty lies�此 �they roll Towards some infinite depth of love and sweetness�察�
Bearing onward man's reluctant soul。

VERSE�此 �A LEGEND OF
BREGENZ
Girt round with rugged mountains The fair Lake Constance lies�察�In her
blue heart reflected Shine back the starry skies�察�And�察�watching each white
cloudlet Float silently and slow�察�You think a piece of Heaven Lies on our
earth below� �
Midnight is there�此 �and Silence�察 �Enthroned in Heaven�察 �looks down
Upon her own calm mirror�察 �Upon a sleeping town�此 �For Bregenz�察 �that
quaint city Upon the Tyrol shore�察 �Has stood above Lake Constance�察 �A
thousand years and more。
Her battlements and towers�察�From off their rocky steep�察�Have cast their
trembling shadow For ages on the deep�此�Mountain�察�and lake�察�and valley�察�A
sacred legend know�察 �Of how the town was saved�察 �one night�察 �Three
hundred years ago。
Far from her home and kindred�察�A Tyrol maid had fled�察�To serve in the
Swiss valleys�察�And toil for daily bread�察�And every year that fleeted So
silently and fast�察�Seemed to bear farther from her The memory of the Past。
She served kind�察 �gentle masters�察 �Nor asked for rest or change�察 �Her
friends seemed no more new ones�察�Their speech seemed no more strange�察�
And when she led her cattle To pasture every day�察�She ceased to look and
wonder On which side Bregenz lay。
She spoke no more of Bregenz�察�With longing and with tears�此�Her Tyrol
home seemed faded In a deep mist of years�察�She heeded not the rumours
Of Austrian war and strife�察�Each day she rose contented�察�To the calm toils
of life。
Yet�察�when her master's children Would clustering round her stand�察�She
sang them ancient ballads Of her own native land�察�And when at morn and
evening She knelt before God's throne�察�The accents of her childhood Rose
to her lips alone。
And so she dwelt�此 �the valley More peaceful year by year�察 �When
suddenly strange portents�察 �Of some great deed seemed near。 The golden

corn was bending Upon its fragile stalk�察�While farmers�察�heedless of their
fields�察�Paced up and down in talk。
The men seemed stern and altered�察 �With looks cast on the ground�察�
With anxious faces�察�one by one�察�The women gathered round�察�All talk of
flax�察�or spinning�察�Or work�察�was put away�察�The very children seemed afraid
To go alone to play。
One day�察 �out in the meadow With strangers from the town�察 �Some
secret plan discussing�察�The men walked up and down。 Yet�察�now and then
seemed watching�察�A strange uncertain gleam�察�That looked like lances 'mid
the trees�察�That stood below the stream。
At eve they all assembled�察�Then care and doubt were fled�察�With jovial
laugh they feasted�察�The board was nobly spread。 The elder of the village
Rose up�察 �his glass in hand�察 �And cried�察 �We drink the downfall ;Of an
accursed land� �
;The night is growing darker�察 �Ere one more day is flown�察 �Bregenz�察�
our foemen's stronghold�察 �Bregenz shall be our own� ─�The women shrank
in terror�察 。�Yet Pride�察 �too�察 �had her part�撮� But one poor Tyrol maiden Felt
death within her heart。
Before her�察 �stood fair Bregenz�察 �Once more her towers arose�察 �What
were the friends beside her�拭 �Only her country's foes� �The faces of her
kinsfolk�察 �The days of childhood flown�察 �The echoes of her mountains�察�
Reclaimed her as their own� �
Nothing she heard around her�察。�Though shouts rang forth again�撮� Gone
were the green Swiss valleys�察�The pasture�察�and the plain�察�Before her eyes
one vision�察�And in her heart one cry�察�That said�察 �Go forth�察�save Bregenz�察�
And then�察�if need be�察�die� ─�
With trembling haste and breathless�察 �With noiseless step she sped�察�
Horses and weary cattle Were standing in the shed�察�She loosed the strong
white charger�察�That fed from out her hand�察�She mounted�察�and she turned
his head Towards her native land。
Outout into the darkness ´ Faster�察 �and still more fast�察 �The smooth
grass flies behind her�察�The chestnut wood is past�察�She looks up�察�clouds are
heavy�此�Why is her steed so slow�拭 � Scarcely the wind beside them�察�Can
pass them as they go。

;Faster� ─ �she cries�察 �Oh faster� ─ �Eleven the church´bells chime�此 �Oh
God�察─�she cries�察 �help Bregenz�察�And bring me there in time� ─�But louder
than bells' ringing�察�Or lowing of the kine�察�Grows nearer in the midnight
The rushing of the Rhine。
Shall not the roaring waters Their headlong gallop check�拭�The steed
draws back in terror�察 �She leans upon his neck To watch the flowing
darkness�察 �The bank is high and steep�察 �One pausehe staggers forward�察�
And plunges in the deep。
She strives to pierce the blackness�察�And looser throws the rein�察 �Her
steed must breast the waters That dash above his mane。 How gallantly�察�
how nobly�察 �He struggles through the foam�察�And seein the far distance�察�
Shine out the lights of home� �
Up the steep banks he bears her�察�And now�察�they rush again Towards the
heights of Bregenz�察 �That tower above the plain。 They reach the gate of
Bregenz�察 �Just as the midnight rings�察 �And out come serf and soldier To
meet the news she brings。
Bregenz is saved� �Ere daylight Her battlements are manned�察�
Defiance greets the army That marches on the land。 And if to deeds heroic
Should endless fame be paid�察 �Bregenz does well to honour The noble
Tyrol maid。
Three hundred years are vanished�察�And yet upon the hill An old stone
gateway rises�察�To do her honour still。 And there�察�when Bregenz women Sit
spinning in the shade�察�They see in quaint old carving The Charger and the
Maid。
And when�察�to guard old Bregenz�察�By gateway�察�street�察�and tower�察�The
warder paces all night long�察�And calls each passing hour�察 �Nine�察─ �ten�察─�
;eleven�察─�he cries aloud�察�And then ��Oh crown of Fame�。� When midnight
