Be true as the Ivy that clasps
In its loving embrace the OAK
So shalt thou receive from Heaven al last
Compensation tenfold for thy faithfulltask,
la blessings thy God shall evoke
And Hope Like the whitening flower.
When drop OF the life giving rain,
Shall fall on lie head and cause it 10 blush
Aud smile In its beauty again
Let It teach thee how Hope, 1t its innnite trust
In the end, every wish may obtain.
Let slaid decorum teach thee how to shun
And guard and guide thy feet from evil ways
Lest when the end Of mighty Time shall come
Thou shalt have cause to lament and mourn,
Too late, the spending OF thy earlier days
And oh, my ardent friend,
Learn early this broad truth
That honesty to thy fellow mer,

Secures to thee, when thou art OIL
A treasure far more dear than gold
A mind without reprooi Is.
