The Village Blacksmith.

''Beneath a spreading chestnut tree
The village smithy stands;
The smith, a mighty man is he
With large and sinewy hands;
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands"
He once was very thin and weak,
And pale and sickly, too;
But now you see, in his physique,
What Germetuer can do.
He says he has no words to speak
What praise to it is due.
