High-Way Land 



AND a wonderful land is High- Way 

 Land 



If only you understand! 



You must first leave all dreams of the 

 idle hours 



With the fields and the forests and 

 meadow flowers, 



And cast all your pictures of sunsets 

 and showers 



To the four winds of Heaven, and look 

 for the towers 



That speak of the world and its har- 

 nessed powers, 



When you enter High- Way Land. 



It calls for your best, this High-Way 



Land, 



It's no place for those who would shirk;
