Novelties Please Less Than They

Perhaps Second-hand Cares, Like Second-hand Clothes, Come Easily Off And On.

Recollections Of The Past And Visions Of The Present Come To Bear Me Company; The Meanest Man To Whom I Have Ever Given Alms Appears, To Add His Mite Of Peace And Comfort To My Stock; And Whenever The Fire Within Me Shall Grow Cold, To Light My Path Upon This Earth No More, I Pray That It May Be At Such An Hour As This, And When I Love The World As Well As I Do Now.

Let Me See You Ride A Donkey Over My Green Again, And As Sure As You Have A Head Upon Your Shoulders, I'll Knock Your Bonnet Off, And Tread Upon It!

This Is A World Of Action, And Not Moping And Droning In.

There Is A Wisdom Of The Head, And A Wisdom Of The Heart.
