MONUMENT

We ourselves own architects.
Our deeds tho stones and cement
With Thich each one Of US creots
To himself a fitting monument.
Who doc notorious, wicked doeds,
Erccts a monument that woie CHS
Of him and proves a living curse;
Whoever in this universe,
Does naught, deserves stone pra Sc ;
But who, in noble de eds, succeeds
Who're others fail. and lose their faith,
Builds a monument that knows dea tn.

AMOR vERDADERo

Love, to be lovo, must find it's dwelling
place
Among two hearts that boat harmon ous1y;
Como what maybe it nj FORTUNE disgrace
Love couquors sti11--it is the victory.
Divorce two hearts in love and love is gone
Like echo--uevor to be again;
Add a third heart, and there sHe 1etou
Springs in the oupb oard--1ifo's eternal
stain.
Give love 1ifc's every bitter dose pill,
And still, despite tho tost, it would
survive;
The tomb may try to steal its every thrill
Yet love rema ins and will forever thrive.
