or one who was meak and lowIy,
And true when sorely tried.
You. too, have heard the story.
AS it came from your mothers heart
So study the lesson clearly
While meath a sterner whip you smart
Unto one He gave i've talents,
And two. and one. you know
And surely He looked for interest,
Whether for veal or wos.
You say you have paid ii. and svsr

Paid in the mine and the factory,
More than the lesson told:
And I doubt not the truth OF the saying
As I list to your tales OF woe.

And the winters winds and snow
So. when Capital comes to Labor,
It's stored-up wealth 10 lend,
To make light the burden OF labor
It comes as labor's friend.
'Tis but interest that we ask for.
On the tools we place In your hand
For the wear and tear Of our earnings,
As you labor on sea and land:
So look not beyond the meadow.
The sea or the mountain pass.
For the loss of Labor's treasures.

"A few nights later I dreamed that
was finishing dressing and started
for clean collar. The first one / got
hold of was this one OF my brothers,
laid it on top of the chiffonier and
pulled out another stray one. 1t, too.
