First lines

It has its new-born Aprils, / With gladness in the air, / Its golden Junes of rapture, / Its winters of despair.

And in its tranquil autumns / We halt to re-enforce / Our tattered scarlet pennons / With valor and resource.

From undiscovered regions / Only the angels know, / Great winds of aspiration / Perpetually blow,
