"EXCELsIoR."
Ho toiler Of the moody brow
10 youth of the downcast eye
Why heave that bitter sighs
Come, coin thy thoughts in Hopes brigh
mould,
And light that cheek so pale;
For youths like thee, so young and bold,
There's no such word as fail
Art cross in love: Let beauty frown;
Turn thou to surer game;
Turn to the virtuous deeds renown,
And earn a deathIess name
Turn to the works of god-like men
Hoist up daring sail;
And if thou stumblest, try again
There's no such word as fail
The Spanish voyager crossed the sea
To seek another world;
And, sickening in dependency,
His weary sails he furled.
But taking heart he wendell on
Till landbirds filed the gale;
Columbus saw his work was done
there's no such word as fail
Thousands who rose from want and gloom,
And now in grandeur laid,
With stored marbles DER their toma.
In many a minister's shade;
Whilst noble youths with Bonded head,
Think, as the brow, the veil
And learn the glorlcs of the dead
There's no such word as fail
And thou, oh, youth of moody look,
Cheer up thy sinking heart !
Try new leaf in life's worn book,
Con DER a better part,
A hooking devil bids thee fear,
But turn and cry-all hail
And shout into his aching ear
There's no such word as fail
