THE MAN WHO ALWAYS TRIES.
Whatever your ambition jad,
However Ligh the prize,
Its mastery may yet be had
By him who aiways tries
Does Fortune—with a rosea! view—
Foretcken fair emprise”
The dreamer’'s fancy may pursue—
The piodder wins who tries
Would you atialn to Learning's lore,
And be esteemed wise?
By patient labor grows Lhe store
Of him who always tries
If Fancy strew the flowers of hope
In beauty ‘neath your eyes
The summit of her shinicg slope
Remains for him who tries
hough Truth appear in homely ergy,
Her counse] ce'er despise;
She will be ciad in light, one Jay
To honor Bim who tries!
