u, life on earth, what dresry sadness lies
Between thy days first dawn and setting sun.
What bitter pangs, what hopeless agonies
Thy moments bring us ere our task is done.
For all our toll OF fevered pulse and brain
For all the patient faith that leads US on,
What dost thou give A heritage of pain
And loss beliefs, when joy and hope are gone.
Thy promises are wondrous fair and sweet,
Thou lowest youths bright smiles and laugh
ter gay
But thou hast only thorns for tired feet;
For wearied eyes the glare of hot monday.
Alas that thou no recOmpense canst give
For all the labor of thy heavy days;
Alas that man must ever toll and live
Waiting for eternity to praise.
