And vistas open far and wide
Along the way,
We seek the pleasures of the hour
And, like the bee from flower to flower,
Live out life's day.
Or else perchance by care opprest
Or weary work we seek for rest
When day is done.

No perfect man on earth we see,
All, no, not one.

A peaceful mind and humble cot,
