( 281 ) 
Dare to do right—Dare to be true, 
Other men’s failures can never save you; 
Stand by your conscience, your God, and your faith, 
Stand like a hero, and battle till death. 
Dare to do right—Dare to be true. 
Keep the great Judgment-Seat always in view; 
Look at your life, as you'll look at it then, 
Scanned by Jehovah, and angels , and men. 
Dare to do right—Dare to be true! 
Cannot Omnipotence carry you throughf 
City and mansion and throne—all in sight! 
Then dare to be true — Yes, dare to do right!" 
— Anon. 
Courage ! 
Time was I shrank from what was right, 
From fear of what was wrong; 
I would not brave the sacred fight. 
Because the foe was strong. 
But now I cast that finer sense 
And sorer shame aside. 
Such dread of sin was indolence, 
Such aim at Heaven was pride. 
So, when my Savior calls, I rise, 
And calmly do my best. 
Leaving to Him, with silent eyes, 
Of hope and fear the resi. 
—Cardinal Newman.
