Dover Beach
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! For this world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight
Where ignorant armies clash by night.
[So reads the final stanza of Matthew Arnold's stirring poem, Dover Beach.]
