A BOY'S MORNING RESOLVE
Everything happy and everything gay— These are the things I will talk of to-day. \ Everything sorrowful, dreadful, and wrong - These are the things I will keep from my tongue. Everything gentle and everything kind These are the things I will hold, in my mind. Everything hateful and everything low These are the things I'm resolved not to know. Everything helpful and everything fine These are the things for these small hands of mine. Everything lazy and everything mean— These I will leave, and, in God's sight, be clean.
