Because unnotced, poor alone;
The day will come. if you keep trying,
When you cannot be unknown.
Saw you not the mounds upri6
Near the tunnels mystic
Resurrected from the quar-
Far beneath the old lake.
They had lain a thousand agcS
In their ancient beds Of clay; - g.as
Now the sunlight falls upon them,
And they hnd at last the day. :-a
Tho you may not be an ocean;
Tho drop is not stream:
Still. q rain drop may do wonders AZ
When you change it into steam.
Strike the hard blow when 'tis needed
When it's needed do not wait: ...
Stronger arms may seize the hammer, .
And you'll only be too late.
Place your foot upon the ladder
Strike out boldly-do not stop;
But with head, hands, pen or muscle,
Work your way toward the top.
Toll is natures watchword. ever
Told in blessed words TO man;
The weekly north Iowa times. [volume] (McGregor, Iowa) 1857-1867, 1865-10-25
