OPPORTUNITY.
(JOHN J INGALI.S.)
Master of human destinies am I!
Fame, love and fortune on my footsteps
wair.
Cities and fields I walk; I penetrate
Deserts and s^as remote, and passing by
Hovel and mart and palace, soon or Tate
I knock unbidden once at every gate!
If sleeping, wake! If feasting, rise
ueiure
I turn away. It is the hour of fate
And they who follow me reach every
state
Mortals desire, and ronqner every foe
Save death; but those who doubt and
hesitate
Condemned to failure, penury, woe,
Seek me in vain and uselessly implore.
I answer not and I return no more.
