1To Mr. David Lubin
2There is a destiny that makes us brothers:
3 None goes his way alone:
4All that we send into the lives of others
5 Comes back into our own.
6I care not what his temples or his creeds,
7 One thing holds firm and fast --
8That into his fateful heap of days and deeds
9 The soul of a man is cast.
