I care not much that Peary find the Pole!
And perhaps the wish were kind
He ne'er may find
What with its finding
Means a dream at end,
For who SO finds a dream,
Strange though it seem,
Must lose it as he finds-
'Tis SO with dreams.
Peary, Godspeed!
We let you go
With hands that linger,
Hands proud to hold,
Reluctant hands to loose;
And I, an idle singer,
A recent friend of ancient admiration,
Would venture thus to bid you
A Godspeed full as kind
As those who longer
Have loved you, Peary,
Longer, maybe, and stronger,
Yet with no will more willing,
Peary, towards you-
Gentlest of all the strong,
Kindest of all the brave.
RICHARD Le GALLIENNE.
