Are swiftly growing, growing every day;

What the harvest time shall be, it is for us to say—

Let us be cheerful in sowing.

RECITATION.—A Sermon in Rhyme

If you have a friend worth loving,

Love him. Yes, and let him know

That you love him, ere life’s evening

Tinge his brow with sunset glow.

Why should good words ne’er be said
