O, stay and hear; your true love's coming, That can sing both high and low: Trip no further, pretty sweeting; Journeys end in lovers meeting, Every wise man's son doth know. What is love?

This England never did, nor never shall,
Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror,
But when it first did help to wound itself.

Come the three corners of the world in arms,
And we shall shock them. Nought shall make us rue,
If England to itself do rest but true.
William Shakespeare

As the train rolls down the track, I say goodbye.
