script)
one rose ablOOm on a turret gray,
The sweet low laugh of child at play,
Are tritles
The fleeing thoughts of an idle hour,
Echoes of former place and power;
The one brief moment Of soldier JOY;
Shoe that was worn by baby boy;
What we often think but do not say.
And the unseen things that work delay
The deeds that We do: the dreams that fill
\ future looming wide and still;
Trouble no true heart fails TO borrow,
A private grief and a public sorrow;
1.-THE wealth that cannot buy content,
The fierce ambition falsely spent,
4 life that finds no sOlace here
I'm love or labor, smile or tear,
Are tritles.
