"who are you men in rotten clothes and ragged beards?
We are the Pilgrims, master,
We shall go always a little further: it may be
Beyond the last blue mountain barred with snow,
Across that angry or that glimmering sea,
White on a throne or guarded in a cave,
There lives a prophet who can understand,
Why men were born: but surely we are brave,
Who make the Golden Journey to Samarkand
"The Pilgrim", James E Flecker
inscribed on the Clock Tower, 22nd SAS
