from ,begin bold,Serenity,end bold,
The storms that break and sweep about my feet,
The winds that blow and tear, the rains that fall,
Shall not the courage of my soul appall;
I shall be conqueror, tho' sore defeat
O'erwhelm the outbound keels of all my fleet
Of dreams; tho' not one tattered sail, but all
Go down mid sea; with heart serene, I'll greet
The worst or best, the stronger for the squall.
