However high a bird may soar,
it sooner or later must perch
on a tree-top to rest and enjoy some quietness.
So too, a day will come when
even the most haughty, the most willful,
the most unbelieving; even those who assert
that there is no joy or peace in
Contemplation of the Highest Self,
will have to pray, "God, grant me peace,
grant me consolation, grant me joy."
