SIC ITUR.
As, at a railway junction, men
Who came together, taking then
One the train up, one down, again
Who came together, taking then
One the train up, one down, again
Meet never! Ah, much more as they
Who take one street's two sides, and say
Hard parting words, but walk one way:
Who take one street's two sides, and say
Hard parting words, but walk one way:
37
Though moving other mates between,
While carts and coaches intervene,
Each to the other goes unseen;
While carts and coaches intervene,
Each to the other goes unseen;
Yet seldom, surely, shall there lack
Knowledge they walk not back to back,
But with an unity of track,
Knowledge they walk not back to back,
But with an unity of track,
Where common dangers each attend,
And common hopes their guidance lend
To light them to the self-same end.
And common hopes their guidance lend
To light them to the self-same end.
Whether he then shall cross to thee,
Or thou go thither, or it be
Some midway point, ye yet shall see
Or thou go thither, or it be
Some midway point, ye yet shall see
Each other, yet again shall meet.
Ah, joy! when with the closing street,
Forgivingly at last ye greet!
Ah, joy! when with the closing street,
Forgivingly at last ye greet!
1845
