OLD FRIENDS.

Books, old friends that are always new,
OF all good things that we know are best;
They never forsake US, others do,
And never disturb our inward rest
Here is truth in world Of lies,
And all that in is great and wisel
Better than and women, friend,
. That are dust, though dear in our Joy and pain,
Are the books their cunning hands have penn ed,
For they depart, but the books remain
Through these they speak TO US what was best
In the loving heart and the noble mind;
All their royal souls possessed
Belongs forever to all mankindl
When others fail him, the wise man looks
To the sure companionship Of books.
