We cannot hope to guide and reach And mould a life by what we If our example fails to teach, And careless wild oats to be The errors made o'er one is grown May be no greater than our own. Why halt the eager footsteps, lest Time, putting all roads to the Shall prove the way they walk best? The untried pathways they t»ke, Their hurts that cause our to break. May mean the progress that make.
