WATCH YOURSELF GO BY.
Just stand aside and watch yourself
go by;
Think OF yourself as "he" instead Of
81"
Note. closely as in other men you
note,
The bag-kneed trousers and the
seedy coat,
Pick flaws; find fauit; forget the
man Is you,
And strive to make your estimate
ring true;
Confront yourself and look you in
the eye t
Just stand aside and watch yourself
90 by.
Interpret all your motives Just as
though
You looked on one whose faults yon
did not know.
Let undisguIsed contempt surge
through you when
You see you shirk, o commonest OF
meni
Despise your cowardice; condemn
whate'er
You note of falseness in you any
where.
Defend not one defect that sbames
your eye
Just stand aside and watch yourself
go by.
And then, with eyes unveiled TO what
you ioathe--
Back to your self-walled tenement
you'll go
with tolerance for all who dwell be-
low.
The faults OF others then will dwarf
and shrink,
Loves claim grow stronger by one
mighty link
When you, with "he" AZ substitute
for "I."
Have stood aside and watched your
self go by.
