List. Ali list; the he'll is tolIing
While the year swiftly on is rolling
Cease Cease stern mentor; why recall
The past from its funeral pall'
Let it care tor its own errors;

Scene after scene, and year alter year;
Ihjldhood's ioys, and Dlanhoods prime
Revolving with the heel OF time.
Ambition crushed; brEht hopes p'lgiltu,
Hearts sundercd, ne'er again 10 be united;
Faces once friendly bright as the sunlight,

Hist They tell no more their mournful
story,
Changed their notes 10 peals OF gladness;
All the earth is full of glory;
Away Away This mournfu madness.
Away this ceascless, sad repining,
This VAN resentment, bitter sorrow;
No more in Incidence reclining,
Arise To battle on the morrow.
With faith that will not waver,
With courage firm, undaunted,
With the energy to conquer
Ev'ry foe. whereer implanted;
knowing life is not failure.
Whatso'e r may be our station,
IF With honest, true endeaVor
We fultiN earh obligation.
