Like KO*«*m*r ao cray,
7.intio tiur seeds, like living tiling
<io floating far away
They go, but whither do they go
Upon the summer wind?
I speed them forth, yet little know
Where they their rest shall Uud.
Unseen by me, these wandering seeds.
The careless bnteze may blow
To some trim garden, where as woods
They may take root * and g row

Each word, each careless word wo say,
Is like these waifs of air;
By ©them* tongue# retold, It may
He borne, we know not where.
If ours be words of evil Wind,
They, like these harmful seeds.
May. rooting la some thoughtless mind.
Quicken to evil deeds
Then heedful should we be that so,
From erery word of ours.
Light where it will, may only grow
True grain of gracious flow ora.
