6 J eipleii k M A S M I D pie66 — )neep When ' twtis willed tihit ,u,lury he removed Leiii ii} lonely eii l}li ess behind; When fliinied fate lumquished once a ain Cutting short precious threads of gold ; Then felt we desolate, unspared, and knew We were as helpless sheep without a guide. How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war Perished! Only after a loss is suffered Know we the gain in having ivhat is now gone Beyond our unavailing cries of recall. Alas! Time does not reverse itself To succor helpless sheep without a guide. But knowing what is missing means knowing What is needed — means knowing what is good. The past, germinated by the present, Makes the hazy outline of the future, And shows lofty aims, ideals and hopes To many helpless sheep ivithout a guide. Yet, consolations of a flitting hour Meagerly repair the wound that years Alone may heal; though tve form designs Of high perfection coming, feel we must, That tve are forlorn in formless, empty chaos And are — as helpless sheep ivithout a guide. — Seymour Krutman Four
