on1Ye no THOSE WHO CLING TO YOU

There are many friends of summer,
Who are kind when flowers bloom,
Rut when winter chills the blossoms,
They depart with the perfume.
ON the broad highway. Of action
Friends Of worth are far and few:
So when one has proved his friendship,
Cling to him that clings to you
Do not harshly judge your neighbor,
Do not deem his lie untrue,
If he make no great pretensions-
Deeds are great though words are Few;
Those who stand amidst the tempest,
Firm as when the skies are due,
Will be friends while lie ehdurelh,
Cling to those who cling to YOU
When you see worthy brother
Bufeting the stormy maln. =
Lend a helping hand fraternai,
Till he reach the shore again;
Don't desert the old and tried friend, g.
When misfortune comes to view. 4
For he then needs friendshipss comforts, {
Cling to those who cling TO you. --'-1< :
