ALEssoN FOR LAocARDs.

You think of taking journey some day
You have talked il over for yenrs and years;
Yet somehow or other Won make delay,
Until further and further away appears
The beautiful gaol; and tell you Low
To bind yourself by solemn vow
To cross the Rubieon. Pluck mp heartl
For you'll never get there unless you start
There looms be ore you from day TO day
A task that you dread To undertake.;
So il hangs like cloud upon YOUR way
Through which the sunshine can never
break.
And / tell YOU now that the better plan,
Is TO do the work as gGies rs you can
Over your fears a victory win,
For you'll never get through II you don't
beginl
With the bravest and busiest keep abreast.
Nor through love OF Incidence lose your
place,
For in each endeavor to do your best
You raise the hopes o. the human rare.
Be not content TO grovel below,
But rise 10 your duties with faith oglowl
Let your aims be high. and strive TO excel;
For he who does better must first do we'll
The heart that gives way to its doubts and
Ieers,
That idly dreams when there's work TO do,
Will find itself briore many years,
Beggard and bankrupt through and
through.
There are journeys TO take and tasks to be
done.
From early morning till SCI Of sun.
And triumphs TO win. as none can deny,
And you'll never succeed unless yOu try
