“With smoking axle hot with speed, with steeds of fire and steam, Wide-waked To-day leaves Yesterday behind him like a dream. Still, from the hurrying train of Life, fly backward far and fast The milestones of the fathers, the landmarks of the past. But human hearts remain unchanged: the sorrow and the sin, The loves and hopes and fears of old, are to our own akin; And if, in tales our fathers told, the songs our mothers sung, Tradition wears a snowy beard, Romance is always young.” IfsHumansHeartStillsDreamPastRomanceYoungMotherSongFatherSinBehindsFireSorrowTraditionHotTrainWideSpeedYesterdayTalesSmokingHuman HeartOur FatherBeardSteamMilestoneHurryingLandmarksHopes And FearsHope And LoveSnowy Book:Narrative and Legendary Poems, Complete Volume I., the Works of Whittier Source: Narrative and Legendary Poems, Complete Volume I., the Works of Whittier
