The poem describes a young man passing through a mountain village at dusk. He bears the banner "Excelsior" (translated from Latin as "higher", also loosely but more widely as "onward and upward"). The youth climbs higher until a last distant cry interrupts the prayers of the monks of Saint Bernard.
