Transcriber's Note: Minor typographical errors have been corrected without note. Dialect spellings, contractions and inconsistencies in the text have been retained as printed. Words enclosed by square brackets replace the symbol, as it is not possible to represent the symbol itself in plain text.

"Ye stars which are the poetry of Heaven! If, in your bright leaves we read the fate Of men and empires--'tis to be forgiven, That in our aspirations to be great, Our destinies o'erleap this mortal state And claim a kindred with you; for ye are A beauty and a mystery and create In us such love and reverence from afar, That Life, Fame, Power, and Fortune have named themselves a star."

Byron.
