sweet spirit of my youth returnBut do not deem me true-
I have not done the half we planndWhile I kept company with you
Like fallen trees in cyclones trackLie the things I meant to do
You pointed upward toward the heightsWhere men inscribe a name
Men who give the best of lifeFor the laurel wreath of fame
With youths aspiring courage buoyed-I thought to do the same
Traced with eyes full bright and strongThe road seemed smooth and wide-
I almost knew each turn it tookAlong the mountain side
So we together started forth-With youths bright hopeforguide
With trust in God and faith In manWe plodded on our way
Nor found the first days journey long-In the sunshine of that day
Never thinking of the handicapsThat in our pathway lay
Nature was first to call a haltFor hunger most men dread
Its cravings must be satisfiedTho sublimest heights wo tread
So we turnd from he road to the summit-To begin the fight for bread-
Th pate was narrow and crowdedMen jostled and pushed to the wall
Their feeble and tardier brethrenAnd heeded not their rail
Every man for himself they saidOnly the good God Is for all
I awakend from the sodden dream-To find tho sky oercast
The joys that bloom in Pleasures gladoAre not tho kind that last
While you and I were dallying thereOpportunity had passed
Then doubt and fear assailed my mindWhere only hope had been
Emerging from the shadowed path-I sought you mid lifes din
But ah my youth I missed youYou had stayed behind with sin
With nerveless hand I grasped my staffStill with your hopes imbued
But trembling feet neer reached the heightFrom which honor must be hewed
While everywhere I turned the roadWith fainting hearts was strewed
Tho years have flown time takes its tollMy stalwart form bends low
I still dwell on the mountain sideWhere you left me long ago-
I could not gain the heights you plannedMy feet had grown so slow
Failure is written on my brow-I see naught in the years ahead
But work in the wearying treadmillOf tho daily fight for bread
And to live in this harrowing struggleA man may as well bo dead
I breathe no sigh for wasted yearsTho in humble paths 1 plod-
I mourn the wreck of childhoodfaithIJ That questioned not Its Gods
But blindly trusting followedWhere other feet had trod
Still thought will turn from future dreadBack to those other years
And as memory lifts the curtainThe dream face of youth appears
Again I see visions of younger daysTho dimly as through tears
