This face is a lifeboat;
This is the face commanding and bearded . . . . it asks no odds of the rest;
This face is flavored fruit ready for eating;

This face of a healthy honest boy is the programme of all good.

LoG, 1855, pg. 84

And the one I also like and just had to post:

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought
is won

O Captain! My Captain!, 1887
