IN the clashing of opinions, Young men ! seek some lofty aim ; Be not ye the crouching minions To a selfish, vaunted name. Proudly burst the iron fetters Superstition loves to bind What are creeds but dreamy letters ? Live for God the truth thy kind. Truth, though pure and Heaven-descended, God makes free to all that seek ; Ye are Priests in union blended With its Author dare to speak ! 170 " PONDER BOLDLY. " Priests at its great Inquisition, Scorn all other slavish bands ; Priests by loftier i...mposition Than the laying on of hands. " Ponder boldly, " dare ye stifle " Truth's high promptings, " and the heart Of its holiest yearnings rifle, Will ye act the coward's part ? What's Tradition but a story ! What are sects but idle dreams ! Ponder, till Truth's dawning glory Through their darkness- brightly beams. Sect or Party whatsoever Standard others choose to bear Think ! the earnest soul was never Satisfied with empty air ; And though many a bosom tender Fail you in this trying hour, Be ye only Truth's defender, God himself will give you power.
