Poems from the first edition

The reason is obvious

```

My brave day sinks

In my darkening night.

My confident heart sinks

In my trembling fear.

Do you know why?

The reason is obvious.

When I was wearing my victory-crown

And

When I was sitting on the victory-throne

I consciously forgot

To place at God’s Feet

My garland of surrender-gratitude. ```
