The woods have been dense[462] for his ax,
The stars have been thick for his counting,
The sands have been wide for his tracks.
The sea has been deep for his diving,
The poles have been broad for his sway,
But bravely he’s proved by his striving,[463]
That “Where there’s a will there’s a way.”
3. Have ye vices that ask a destroyer,
Or passions that need your control?[464]
Let Reason become your employer,
