Two shall be born the whole wide world apart;
And speak in different tongues, and have no thought
Each of the other's being, and no heed;
And these o'er unknown seas to unknown lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death,
And all unconsciously shape every act And lend each wandering step to this one end,-—
That, one day, out of darkness, they shall meet
And read life's meaning in each other's eyes.
