Side 616 - early promise sparkled for a moment and exhaled—are not wholly lost; he has not lived nor died in vain. Let these thoughts cheer us as we labor, and bear us up in our discouragements. " Not enjoyment, and not sorrow Is our destined end or way, But to act that each to-morrow

Side 608 - bough In youth it shelter'd me, And I'll protect it now. 'Twas my forefather's hand That placed it near his cot ; There, woodman, let it stand, Thy axe shall harm it not!
