I have slipped the surly bOnds of Earth And danced the skies On laughter-silvered Wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds, — and dOne a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind alOng, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air . . .

Gloria! 3 Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head; "To me be as it pleases God," she said. "My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name." Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! 4 Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ, was born In Bethlehem, all On a Christmas morn, and Christian folk throughout the world will ever say, "Most highly favoured lady, Gloria!"  Onclick="$(this).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='nOne';">less
