I.
When at tlie social board you sit, And pass around the wine, Remember, though abuse is vile, That use may be divine : That Heaven, in kindness, gave the grape To cheer both great and small — That little fools will drink too much, But great ones not at all.
II.
And when in youth's too fleeting hours You roam the earth alone, And have not sought some loving heart That you may make your own : — Remember woman's priceless worth, And think, when pleasui'es pall —... That little fools will love too much, But great ones not at all.
III.
And if a friend deceived you once, Absolve poor human kind, Nor rail against your fellow-man With malice in your mind ; 48 BALLADS AND LYRICAL POEMS.
But in your daily intercourse, Remember, lest you fall — That little fools confide too mucli, But great ones not at all.
IV.
In weal or woe be trustful still ; And in the deepest care Be bold and resolute, and shun The coward foe Despair. Let work and hope go hand in hand ; And know, whate'er befall — That little fools may hope too much, But sreat ones not at all.
