r- r POETRY *
'Building' on th?3 Sand.
'Tib well to woo, 'tis well to wed,
For ho the world hr?3 done
Since myrtles grow, and rosea blew,
And morning brought the sun.
But have u care ye young and fair?
Bcbure ye pledge w ith truth,
Bo certain that y.our love will wear
Bayond the days of youth.
Tor if 3*0 giro not heart for heart.
As well as hand for hand,
You'll find you've play<*d the unwise part,
And "built upon the sand."
'Tiu well to save, 'tis well to have
A goodly ctoro.of gold,
And hold enough of the binning shiti",
For charity i* cold.
But. place not hll your hopes and tru.-t
In what thq,deep mine brings;
Wo cannot live on yellow dust,
- Unmixed with purer things. j
And he who piles up wealth alo:.*\
Will (jfLen.huro to bland
Beside his cofTer chest, and own
'Tib "built Hl'iull the sand."
I
'Tie good to speak in kind!;- guise,
Ajid foot lift where'er \vc can;
Fair speech t-lion'.d-bii-d the hnmnn mind, j
And h>vo link man to mar.
But stay not at ge:itl<: wordr,
Ltft deeds "with language dwell,
The ono who pities starving biwi;., ?
Should .scatter ritmbs au well.
llio mercy tliniis> warm and I me,
Must lend a helping hasid ;
For those who talk, yet fail to do,
Iiut "build upon the sand." |
