Where I've studied (& had fun!)

School Prayer (- Rabindranath Tagore, from his Gitanjali.)

Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving
stretches its arms towards perfection,
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee
into ever-widening thought and action--
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
