Excerpt from What Would Lincoln Say to This Generation?: The Substance of the First Lenten Lecture of the Series of 1918 at the Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Delivered on Wednesday, February 13th
Who bursts his birth's invidious bar, And grasps the skirts of happy chance; And breasts the blows of circumstance, And grapples with his evil star.
Who makes by force his merit known, And lives to clutch the golden keys; And mould a mighty state's decrees, And shape the whisper of the throne.
