And tried to make the record true; Each year a wreck on tlme'e doll ahore Prove much I dared, but little knew. Ah, bright resolve! How high you bear The future's hopeful e tan dar don; How brave you etaVt; how poor you wear!

Yet still once more I turn tbe leaf, And mourn to walk tbe batter way; I struggle withpldunbelief. And strive to* reaoh theperfeot day.
