> Truth never dies. The ages come and go.  
> The mountains wear away, the stars retire.  
> Destruction lays earth's mighty cities low;  
> And empires, states, and dynasties expire;  
> But caught and handed onward by the wise,  
> Truth never dies.  
>  
> Though unreceived and scoffed at through the years;  
> Though made the butt of ridicule and jest;  
> Though held aloft for mockery and jeers,  
> Denied by those of transient power possessed,  
> Insulted by the insolence of lies,  
> It answers not. It does not take offense,  
> But with a mighty silence bides its time;  
> As some great cliff that braves the elements  
> And lifts through all the storms its head sublime,  
> It ever stands, uplifted by the wise,  
> And never dies.  
>  
> As rests the Sphinx amid Egyptian sands;  
> As looms on high the snowy peak and crest;  
> As firm and patient as Gibraltar stands,  
> So truth, unwearied, waits the era blessed  
> When men shall turn to it with great surprise.
