"Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn / them: but gather the wheat into my barn. " / MATTHEW xiii. 30.
"For shoulders curved with the counter stoop will be carried / erect and square; / And faces white from the office light will be bronzed by the / open air; / And we'll walk with the stride of a new-born pride, with a / new-found joy in our eyes; / Scornful men who have diced with death under the naked skies. / "For some of us smirk in a chiffon shop, and some of us teach / in a school; / Some of us help with the seat of our pants to polish an / office stool; / The merits of somebody's soap or jam some of us seek to explain; / But all of us wonder what we'll do when we have to go back / again.
