46. If this great world of joy and pain
Revolve in one sure track;
If Freedom, set, will rise again,
And Virtue, flown, come back;
Woe to the purblind crew who fill
The heart with each day's care,—
Nor gain, from past or future, skill
To bear and forbear.- Wordsworth.

bestow a pleasant smile, and you will receive the
The happiness you bestow upon

These were one in nature's plan;
Humble toil and heavenward duty,—
