The Mastery of
Destiny

By

James Allen

Author of
From Poverty to Power,” “All These Things Added,”
As a Man Thinketh,” etc.

Thou art no longer grim, O Destiny!
  No longer art thou drear and dark and dread,
Absolute king and god arbitrary
  Seated in tragic state among the dead—
Friendly and fair to man I see thee now,
And light and beauty round thy lordly brow.
