For the top Of tho ladder Is bound.
But tho ladder is frail and the rungs arc weak,
And many will try for the ladders peak.
Tho top of the ladder is high
And 1t rests on tho edge OF cloud;
And the climber who tolls toward the SKY
Is only ono man In n crowd.
And the man who Is climbing must have care
That they don't push him OF on his way up
there
The top OF the ladder! Q. you
Runv by rung your way TO achieve.
Flick the steps that arc sturdy and true.
Fore some they will cheat and deceive.
You can't win your goal with a skip and hop,
For there's many rung to the ladders top.
