Sometimes the wind-battalions shouting loud + 

Do men most service, now again + 

The rains of heaven, the children of the cloud, + 

Bring blessing in their train. + 

But when by toil one winneth victory, + 

The singer’s honey-throated lays + 

Upringing, plant for fame that yet shall be + 

A sure foundation, are a prophecy + 

Of exploits worthy praise. + 
