THE EVERY DAY ADVICE
SCHOOL-DAYS.
Lord, let me make this rule, To think of life as school; And try my best To stand each test, And do my work And nothing shirk.
Some day the hell will sound; Some day my heart will bound. As with a shout That school is out And lessons done I Homeward run. * * * *
The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of fmving had one.
—Seneca THE FLIGHT OF TIME.
The more we live, more brief appears Our life’s succeeding stages ; A day to childhood seems a year, And years like endless ages. Heaven gives our years of fading strength Indemnifying fleetness; And those of youth, a- seeming length Proportioned by their sweetnes. —Campbell.
