FOOLS AND WISE HEN.

When at the festive board you sit
Where flows the sparkling wine.
Remember, though to drink be sweet,
That to abstaii s divine;
That natures beverage should su1ce
To cheer both great and small
That fools will drink the maddening emp,
But wise men not ut ALL
In work or play remember too
This sacrvh rule TO mind.
Your work should be for noble ends,
Your pleasures pure in kind
Then, though you have merry heart,
Forget not, lest you fall,
That fools will sport in wicked ways,
but wise men not at all. .a
Aud when in youths advancing hours
You feel yourself alone,
And seek some woman's trusting heart,
Then give her all YOU own;
Eemenber it your passions roam.
Those PLEASURES coon must pail,
That fools will court the wantons smiles.
But wise men not at all.
And il deceived by fair prc.erce
or friendship in your kind.
Learn thence to judge yonr fellow men
With a disco ming mind;
d lathful friend shall bring you bliss,
n false one only gall;
Fools trust their all to trcacherous knaves
But wise men not at al.
A0i ror your neiglhors veal or woo
Fer have kindly care;
Remrmhcr what is safe for you
May !eGi him 10 despair
Then pause before YOU take step
May cause brother, fall.
For Tools live for themselves alone,
But wise men live for all.
In NIL your intercourse with men
BE this yodr constant aim.
To help the gnod TO walk Alright,
The wandering to reclaim
Each haser appetite toscheck,
Lest it should work your thrall;
For FOOLS indulge in sortii lust,
But wise men not at all.
