"The time has come to _uplift our spirits_!"

[Wilson Gray]

Maybe language-change has once again left me in its dust, but I prefer
"... lift up our spirits!" Possibly, there was some interference from
the hackneyed phrase, "spiritual uplift." at work, here.

-Wilson
–––
All say, "How hard it is that we have to die!"---a strange complaint
to come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
