FROM THE SANSKRIT

LISTEN TO THE EXHORTATION OF THE DAWN!

LOOK TO THIS DAY FOR IT IS LIFE, THE VERY LIFE OF LIFE!

IN ITS BRIEF COURSE, LIE ALL THE VERITIES

AND ALL THE REALITIES OF YOUR EXISTENCE;

THE BLISS OF GROWTH,

THE GLORY OF ACTION,

THE SPLENDOR OF BEAUTY;

FOR YESTERDAY IS BUT A DREAM AND TOMORROW IS ONLY A VISION;

BUT TODAY WELL LIVED

MAKES EVERY YESTERDAY A DREAM OF HAPPINESS,

AND EVERY TOMORROW A VISION OF HOPE.

LOOK WELL, THEREFORE, TO THIS DAY!

SUCH IS THE SALUTATION OF THE DAWN.
