Fear Not, Dear Friend

by Robert Louis Stevenson Fear not, dear friend, but freely live your days Though lesser lives should suffer. Such am I, A lesser life, that what is mine of sky Gladly would give for you, and what of praise.

Step, without trouble, down the sunlit ways.

We that have touched your raiment, are made whole From all the selfish cankers of our souls, And we would see you happy, dear, or die.

Therefore be brave, and therefore, dear, be free; Try all things resolutely, till the best, Out of all lesser betters, you shall find; And we, who have learned greatness from you, we, Your lovers, with a still, contented mind, See you well anchored in some port of rest.
