"Thy shoes shall be iron and brass, and as thy days, so shall thy strength be" Deut. 33. 25.

Through trials may thy path environ,
Though rough the road thou art called to pass,
Fear not, thy shoes shall be of iron;
Yea, shod with iron, shod with brass,
Go forth and tread the roughest ways,
With strength according to thy days!
