Tl»o Day's Work.
Do thy (lay's work, my dear, Though fast and dark tho clouds arc "drifting near. Though time has llttlo left for hope and very much for fear. •.if,. Do thy day's work, though now The hand must falter and tho head must bow, And far above the failing foot shows tho bold mountain brow.
Yet there is left for us, Who on tho valley's verge stand, trembling thus, A light that lies far in tho west—soft, faint, but luminous.
We can give kindly speocli. And ready helping hands to alt and eacd. And patience, to the young arc-und, by smiling
Eilence teach.
Wo can give gentle thought, Aini charity, by life's long lesson taught, And wisdom, from old faults lived down, by toil and failure wrought.
We can give love, unmarred By selfish snatch at happiness, utijarred By the keen aims for power or joy ." hat make youth cold and hard. And if gay hearts reject Tho gilts wo hold—would fain faro on unchecked On the bright roads that scarcely yieid all that young eyes expect-
Why, do thy day's work still. Tho calm, deep founts of love are slow to
chill
And heaven may yet the harvest yield, tho work worn hands to fill. —All tho Year Round.
