A SONG FOR THE TIMES.


Let hard times asaail us,
Let poverty nail us
Like mystical horse-shoes To every old wall
Let deep tribulation
And fierce dessolation
Spread over all lands like a funeral pail;
Though empty our purses,
Though creditors curse US,
And quarters are squeezed till the eagles All howl
Let's have merry faces,
And smiles for all places,
Remember tits better TO grin than to growl
And though banks are breaking,
And big houses qnaking,
Let one day undo all they have ever done
Our crossness can't mend It,
Our weeping won't end II,
WHY mot fake the bright side aud call II all funf
viii forfeited pleasures
Or imbece measures
Bring back our lost confdence-ft the dark cowif
No no to-day's sorrow
Brings no brighter tomorrow;
When things VIII 60 bad lot Us grin and not growl
But let US keep thinking
That though we are sinking,
We can't go much further, because II won't pay;
The old saw not forgetting
That's cured lots Of fretting,
The hour il the darkest Just before day :
Though vacant our purses,
Though creditors curse Us,
Though quarters are squeezed till the eagles all howl
Let's keep merry faces
And smiles for all places,
For surely It's better to grin than to growl
