A printer, weary and wan,
Ifis fitce il Il o tally pale,
As ie wearily pludied his homeward way,
Before tIhe breaking of enrly day,
Broke out ir bitter wail.
Ilis voice was husky aInd low
As though his lungs were gone:
And he cotighed and gasped, and coughed
agail,
And he pressed his hilittd on his heart In
pair,
While t hus his plaint ran on
'A world of toil is this!
It iat h no joys for ie :
'Tis Labor by Iay. ail labor by night;

And death i would be rest, to him.
