II can write upon this last turned page 30 whit
That some pathway dark and drear hav'
/ made moro bright.
And that my glance has fall'n ike SUNSHINE
where 1t went;
And that from careless lips no idle words wer
That to those about me have grown mucl
kinder;
And to their many faults have been still binder
That through the hardest days though 30 presses
and weary,
I've not fretted, shirked, but only grown NOR
CHEEKY;
That /, by self.denying acts have grown NOR
And faced the struggle trying hard to right tn
wrong;
And through this all have kept upon the sunn,
side
Then, only, with the year shall be satisfied.
