E7oe Ont Eour Row.

One lazy day farmers 10y
Was hoeiug out the corn,
And moodily had listened long
To hear the dinner horn.
The welcome blast was heard at last,
And down he dropped the hoe;
But the good man shouted in his ear,
"My boy, hoe out your row!"
Although hard one" was the row.
TO use plowman's phraze,
And tle lad, as sailors have it,
Beginning well to '' haze -
cam" said he, and manfully
He seized again his hoe;
And the good man smiled to see
e. The boy hoe out his row.
The lad the text remembered,
And proved the moral well,
That perseverance to tie end
9oas. AT lest will nobly tell.
sg Take courage, man! resolve you can,
And strikea vigorous blow;
!, In ife's great field Of varied toll,
Always hoe out your row.
