Thomas MacDonagh (Томас Макдона)
The Poet Saint
Sphere thee in Confidence Singing God's Word, Led by His Providence, Girt with His Sword; Bartering all for Faith, Following e'er That others deem a wraith, Fleeting and fair. 'Walk thou no ample way Wisdom doth mark; Seek thou where Folly's day Setteth to dark. 'Darkness in Clarity Wisdom doth find, Folly in Charity Doubting the Kind, 'Folly in Piety, Folly in Trust, Heav'n in Satiety, Death in Death's dust. 'Thou from the dust shalt rise Over all Fame, Angels of Paradise Singing thy name.'
