الصفحة 68 - Are you in earnest? seize this very minute — What you can do, or dream you can, begin it, Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
الصفحة 193 - The sea of Fortune doth not ever flow, She draws her favours to the lowest ebb ; Her tides have equal times to come and go, Her loom doth weave the fine and coarsest web ; No joy so great but runneth to an end, No hap so hard but may in fine amend.
الصفحة 177 - See ! how to my heart she nestles,— 'tis the pearl I love to wear ; — If, in after years, beside thee sits another in my chair, Though her voice be sweeter music, and...
الصفحة 26 - ... all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of Time, — Footprints that perhaps another, Sailing o'er life's solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again. Let us, then, be up and doing, With a heart for any fate ; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait.
الصفحة 34 - Voyager upon life's sea, To yourself be true, And where'er your lot may be, Paddle your own canoe.

When the world is cold and dark, Keep an aim in view, And toward the beacon-mark Paddle your own canoe.

الصفحة 200 - No wish beyond the home where thou shouldst enter, Ever anew to find thy presence brought My life's best joy. I would be thine ! Not passion's wild emotion To show thee, fitful as the changing wind, But with a still, deep, fervent life-devotion, To be to thee the help-meet God designed — For this would I be thine ! 116 HOW MUCH THERE IS THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.
الصفحة 46 - Passed pale and anxious by the sickly lamp, Till the young poet wins the world at last To listen to the music long his own ? The crowd attend the statesman's fiery mind That makes their destiny ; but they do not trace Its struggle, or its long expectancy. Hard are life's early steps ; and, but that youth Is buoyant, confident, and strong in hope, Men would behold its threshold, and despair.
