FORWARD GO
Speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward. —Ex. xiv. 15
The promised land to every soul Far in the distance gleams; Go forward, then, nor halting wait. Dream thou no idle dreams.
While yet 'tis flay, still forward go, Keep thou thine armor bright; Whose time is spent in vain regret Shall never win the fight.
