FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
THE RUDDER AND THE WILL

OF what are you thinking, my little lad, with
the honest eyes of blue,
As you watch the vessels that slowly glide
DER the level ocean foor2
Beautiful. graceful silent as dreams, they pass
away from our view,
And down the slope of the world they go, to
seek some far off shore.
They seem to be scattered abroad by chance to
move at the breezes' viii,
Aimlessly wandering hither and yon, and
melting in distance gray;
But each one moves to purpose firm, and the
wind their sails that fill
Like faithful servants speed them all on their
appointed way.
For each has rudder, my dear little lad with a
st9nch man at the wheel,
And the rudder is never left to itself, but the
viii of the man is there;
There isnever moment, !day or night, that the
vessel does not feel
The force of the purpose that shapes her course
and the helmsman's watchful care.
Some day you viii launch your ship, my boy,
on life's wide, treacherous sea-
Be sure your rudder is wrought Of strength to
stand the stress of the gale,
And your hand on the wheel, don't let it finch,
whatever the tummult be,
For the will Of man, with the help of God.
shall conquer and prevail.
