H strove to climb the ladder of success,
But though the top seemed always very
near,
1se never reached it. Yet he saw il clear
And thought each day that he might closer
press.
Midway he stopped, and there he stand;
to-day,
While others pass him on their upward
climb;
and does he, then, put in his precious
Bewailing what the fates have sent his
way!
Ab, no. He found that there was worl,
to do,
He cheers all those who pass him, as they
go;
Thea, turning to the struggling ones be
low,
Ia cries: "Come on! There's room up
SLere for you!"
