    And vigilance for their safety, must not change
    Their ploughshares into swords, and force them from
    The secure shade of their own vines, to be
    Scorched with the flames of war.

hopeful view of the prospects of your own country? Why should it
be? Why should patriotism and pessimism be identical? Hope is
the mainspring of patriotism.
