SURVIVORS

By George Benson Hewetson

When that last fiery bolt is hurled Which waits but heaven's august decree, To shiver into dust the world And make a storm of flame the sea; When strikes the last sad human eye The tumult of the reeling sky;
Unawed shall stand in that dread hour— When the red suns as ashes fall— Poised in the calm of Godlike power, One with the Great Supreme of All, Those souls who, guileless of retreat, Snatched the lit laurels from defeat. —George Benson Hewetson.
