Athens, the eye of Greece, mother of arts And eloquence.

Ancient of days! august Athena! where, Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul? Gone--glimmering through the dream of things that were; First in the race that led to glory's goal, They won, and pass'd away--Is this the whole?

What has Athens to do with Jerusalem?

It is day by day, but for now (Athens) is our home. We need stability for (our children).

Best image of myself and dearer half.

A little onward lend thy guiding hand / To these dark steps, a little further on.
