Of all these hustlers and their schemes.

And she arose, and in that darkening room
Stood lonely as a spirit of the night —
Stood calm and fearless in the gathered night —
And raised her eyes to heaven. There were tears
Upon her face, but in her heart was peace.
Peace that the world nor gives nor takes away!Lewis Carroll

And raised her eyes to heaven. There were tears
Upon her face, but in her heart was peace.
Peace that the world nor gives nor takes away!Charles (Lewis Carroll) Dodgson

As the clocks were striking the hour,
And the moon rose o'er the city,
Behind the dark church-tower.Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
