So clear I see, now it is done,

That I have wasted half my day

And left my work but just begun.

So clear I see that things I thought

Were right, or harmless, were a sin;

So clear I see that I have sought

Unconscious, selfish aims to win;

So clear I see that I have hurt

The souls I might have helped to save;

That I have slothful been, inert,
