BE HAPPY AS YOU CAN.

This life is not all sunshine,
Nor is it yet all showers,
But storms and Gains alternate,
AS thorns among the flowers;
And while we seek the roses,
The thorns full oft we sean,
Still, let us, through they wound us,
Be happy as we can.
This life has heavy crosses,
As well as joys to share,
And griefs and dissappointments
Which you and / must bearr
Yet, if misfortune's lava
Entombs hopes dearest plan,
Let us, with what is left us,
Be as happy as we can.
The sum of our enjoyment
Is made of little things,
As oft the broadcast rivers
Are formed from smallest springs;
BY treasuring small waters
The rivers reach their span;
SO we increase our pleasures,
Enjoying what we can.
There may be burning deserts
Through which our feet must go,
But there are green cases
Where pleasant palm trees grow;
And if we may not follow
The path our hearts would plan,
Let us make all around us
AS happy as we can.

highest court of the state, and all
