So he died for his faith. That is fine. More than most of us do.But stay; can you add to that line That he lived for it too?
It is easy to die. Men have died For a wish or a whim --From bravado, from passion or pride; Was it harder for him?
But to live; every day to live out All the truth that he dreamt,While his friends met his conduct with doubt, And the world with contempt --
Was it thus that he plodded ahead, Never turning aside?Then we'll talk of the life that he led, Never mind how he died.
