There was an Old Man with a beard,
Who sat on a horse when he reared;
But they said, "Never mind!
You will fall off behind,
You propitious Old Man with a beard!"

Take courage, Mortal... Death cannot banish you from the Universe.
by Hervey Allen
It stands upon a plain in far Cathay,
A tower like a needle with its eye
Through which the desert sun strikes once a day
At noontide when the mountain shadows die.
