Seven ways the hearts will break.
Bravest heart will carry on
When sleep is death, and hope is gone.

And see the answer white and clear,
Then throw away all thoughts of home,
For only then your quest is done.”

And take the path where children play.
Then where the face with breath that sighs
Bends to admire its gleaming eyes,
You way is marked by lines of light
That mean escape from endless night.”
