David's Heritage: A Novel (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from David's Heritage: A Novel

With aching hands and bleeding feet,
We dig and heap, lay stone on stone,
We hear the burden and the heat
Of the long day and wish 'twere done!
Not till the hours of night return
All we have built do we discern.

- Matthew Arnold.
