Twenty-four hours are mine today

And in each one of them I see

To carry on, if I've the bent,
Gods work of earthly betterment

The tools to do the work are here

The why or wherefore of the task

SuppGcation.

Give me the hills and a stout ash stick
And the turf beneath my feet;
And leafy tree to rest beneath
In the height of the noontide heat
Give me the road, the long gray road
AS Il wanders DER the hill,
Past the ivied church and the hardwood copse
And the mumbling stone-toothd mill.
Give me the moors that stretch around
Like gray and purple wreath,
And the topping clouds, and the setting sun,
And the wind across the heath.
Give the dew on the meadow grass
As IL glints in the light of morn;
And the CLASSY tarn, and the gemmy pools
At the hour when the night is born.
Give me but these-and the winking stars
When the long glad day iss DONE
Then give friend to share it all
