Nature, let me learn of thee. One lesson which in every wind is blown. One lesson of two duties kept at one Though the loud world proclaim their enmity Of toil unsever dfrom tranquillity ;O flabour, that in lasting fruit outgrows Par noisier schemes, accomplish din repose. Too great for haste, too high for rivalry. Yes, while on earth a thousand discords ring, Man ssenseless uproar mingling with his toil. Still do thy quiet ministers move on. Their glorious tasks in silence perfecting ;S till working, blaming still our vain turmoil; Labourers that shall not fail, when man is gone.
