Wilt not idle for a day?[Pg 44]

[Pg 44]

Wilt not shirk

Thy waste of work?

This is life, this radiant play

Nature keeps for flowering May.

Buds and bees and grass and flower

Make a sweeter, holier hour

Than all drab years of labour dour.

Come away,

Come and play,

Come and glory in the sun,

Come and laugh! Come, everyone.

Flowering May

Is fresh and gay,

Come and greet the golden sun.

Come away,

Come and play,

Come, oh! come out, everyone!

[Pg 45]
