"Turn not unto them that call thee

tarryest in the hall of legislation, be
thou not pulled up; think not proudly,
that therefore thy name shall be called
~Solon-verily, I say unto thee, it is dol

that be called, and few are they that be
chosen. Paint not, therefore, for thy
self rainbows Of many colors; but if any
shall say unto thee, behold. have l not
a dead oinch, follow thou me and thou
shalt have music-look we'll that it be
the hand-wagon in all verify and none
other, and Immediately thereafter get q
hump on thyself, oh my son, and be
thankful in the day Of small things,
that thou art still in it.
my son, let not ambition swell the
diameter of thy medulla %oblongata; for
ambition hath turned down many of
them that wore diamonds and a big
head shall make even a wise man to be
the sport of fools. Yea, verify, he that
ascendeth Olympus before his wings be
hedged, shall he not slip a cog and
straightway be bathed in the fluid
wherein a chicken hath waded? And
he shall never smile again. What saith
the poet, my son, what saith the sage OF
Walla Walla? Hearken unto his words
of wisdom,
There's many a slip betwixt cup and lip.
And many a fall from grace

version to the fate deserved by republi-
