You can laugh about the trouble
That has one time caused you tears;
Looking backward through the years; :
For the mountains seek the valleys
Till level landscape lies
Meath the cleaning golden sunshine
of some future summer skies.
You can laugh DER disappointments
OF the years of Fortunes frown.

For. Gods blessing is upon you
Time. life's healing balm. he gave
For the wounds that may beset you
'Twixt the cradle and the grave.
