Richard Henry Stoddard/Richard Henry Stoddard
There are gains for all our losses. Can be compensated,
There are balms for all our pain; All our pain can be comforted;
But when youth,the dream,departs ,
It takes something from our hearts, it takes away something beautiful in our hearts,
And it never comes again. It never comes back.
We are stronger, and are better, we are becoming stronger and more perfect,
Under manhood's sterner reign; Driven by the severe adult life;
Still we feel that something sweet but still feel the sweet emotion,
Following youth, with flying feet, has flown away with youth,
And will never come again. No return.
p>
Something beautiful is vanished, the beauty has disappeared,
And we sigh for it in vain; We sigh for it in vain;
We behold it everywhere, even in heaven and earth Between,
On the earth, and in the air, we can see the charm of youth everywhere,
But it never comes again! But it never comes back!

A Nation's Strength
Ralph Wall Emerson
Not gold, but only man can make
A people great and strong;
Men who for truth and honor's sake
Stand fast and suffer long．
Brave men who work while others sleep,
Who dare while others fly;
They build a nation's pillar deep
And lift them to the sky．
"The Power of the Nation"
Not gold, only people can make a nation great and strong;
For truth, for honor,
They are determined and have gone through hardships.
They are fearless. They work while others are sleeping.
They show their bravery when others are running away;
They are deeply rooted in Bury the pillars of the nation,
and raise the stone pillars to support the sky.
