Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "Ulysses" pt. 2

Ulysses Deriding Polyphemus - Wikipedia

Today’s poem is the final stanza of Tennyson’s “Ulysses,” in which the hero of the Trojan war persuades his aging compatriots to wring out the last of their energies in a quest for the ends of the earth–“to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.” Happy reading.
