l left my cares behind me yesterday, And learned to greet with kindness those who doubt me; What right have I to lag upon my way. Or bitterly spread .gloominess about me? The little troubles that I thought I had As soon as I inspected them departed: What right have I to halt those who are glad - And try to teach them to be heavyhearted? My tasks, once hard, have ceased to terrify. I find that joy may even lurk in duty; Where others praise the scene what right have I To sadly try to blihd them to Its beauty? I Why feed the little fears that bring dlsmay, Why sadly rise each morning to renew them? I left cares behind me yesterday, Because there was no fealn j n clinging to them.
