Of Doing
The One Poor Tool at Hand will Mend the Case,
And not the Twenty “Somewhere 'Round the Place.”
T HAT Hour was never thrown away,
Which, spent in Planning, saved a Day.
A S you Hope to be Commended,
Show no Work before 'tis Ended.
The World may owe a Man a Living, yet
He has to Prove it and Collect the Debt.
Applause for the Work of your Hand or your Pen
Is only a Challenge to Do it Again.
And not the Twenty “Somewhere 'Round the Place.”

Applause for the Work of your Hand or your Pen
Is only a Challenge to Do it Again.
