The Gate of Peace (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Gate of Peace <p>O gentle friends, You who know much now of the search for peace, And in the difficult art of life have learned How beauty is the fittest guise of good, And good the utmost tr nth, what signify Our keepsakes from the ancient brooding East A. Mystic fleck from inspiration's wing, A little modern skill to hold it fast, With best of all a loving heart's warm care That linked them thus as emblems of its faith, Wherein, whoever seeks the Gate of Peace, Content to travel by the happy signs On Allah's highway through this modern world, May find it through the code of loyalty To wisdom, joy, and blessed loveliness. <p>Another gate of peace. Of threefold make, Prologue and tale and epilogue, is here Set up for fellow farers on the road, Inscribed with grateful heart to M. P.
