"Great hail! we cry to the comers- from the dazzling unknown shore; bring us hither your sun and your summers- and renew our world as of yore; you shall teach us your song's new number- and things that we dreamed not before: yea, in spite of a dreamer who slumbers, and a singer who sings no more." Arthur O' Shaughnessy, from 'Ode', 1873
