Take not my hand as mine alone --
You do not trust to me --
I hold the hand of greater men / Too far before to see.
Follow not me, who only trace / Stoop-head the prints of those / Our mighty predecessors, whom / The darknesses enclose.
I cannot lead who follow -- I
Who learn, am dumb to teach; / I can but indicate the goals / That greater men shall reach.
