Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Grover Cleveland: A Record of Friendship He shrank from praise, this simple-hearted man - Therefore we praise him! Yet, as he would wish, Chiefly our praise not for the things he did, But for his spirit in doing. Ah, great heart, And humble! Great and simple heart! forgive The homage we may not withhold! Strong soul! Thou brave and faithful servant of the State, Who labored day and night in little things, No less than large, for the loved country´s sake, With patient hand that plodded while others slept! Who flung to the winds preferment and the future, Daring to put clear truth to the perilous test, Fearing no scathe if but the people gained, And happiest far in sacrifice and loss. Yes, happiest he when, plain in all men´s sight, He turned contemptuous from the lure of place, Spurning the laurel that should crown success Soiled by surrender and a perjured soul.
