You know, that one?
I've thought about that line a lot, and it occurred to me that, for a mantra designed to banish fear, it certainly does talk a lot about it, n'est-ce pas?
If I were designing a mantra against fear, I'd design it with a positive outcome in mind. Ecce:-
"I Shall Smile, And Turn,
And Face This Oncoming Storm
With My Eyes Wide Open.
"I Shall Brace My Mind With Courage,
And Fortify My Soul With Glee.
"And If This Storm Brings My End,
I Shall Be Content:
For The Last Thing I Shall Experience Before My Extinction
Shall Be Insatiable Curiosity."

So speak.
