Thought and Deed.
Full many a light thought mnn may cherish. Full many an idle deed may do:
Yet not a deed or Ihought may perish— Nol ono bul ho iihalt bless or rue.
Whon by die wind tho Irco is shaken, There's not a bough or leaf can fall,
Bul of its falling heed ia laken. By oxK who sees anil governs all.
Tho tree may fall and be forgoiten. And buried in Iho earth remain ;
¦Vet from its juices rank cr rotlen, Springs vegclating life again.
Tho world is wilh creation teeming.

In other shapes and forms arise.
And nature slill unfolds the tissue Of unseen works by spirit wrought;
And not a work bul has ils ti.snues Wilh blessinf s or wilh evil franghl.
