Give words of comfort, of defence, and hope,
To mortals crushed by sorrow and by error.
And though thy feet through shadowy paths may grope,
Thou shalt not walk in loneliness or terror.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919) American author, poet, temperance advocate, spiritualist

Poem (1906), “Give,” st. 2, New Thought Pastels
