To face uaaided your woe.

And then-through the mists en-

A sunbeam OF hope smiles clear,
As you turn to an old friend forgotten
In prosperity's happy year.
And he-though his coat may be

And his brown hands worn by toll
Proves true In this hour of trial
And around him your heart-strings

And 30, in your hour of sunshine,
Be careful to choose your friend,
