Life is but a song Art is wondrous long; Yet to the wise her paths are ever fair, And Patience smiles, though Genius may despair. Give us but knowledge, though by slow degrees. And blend our toil with moments bright as these, Let Friendship saccents cheer our doubtful way, And Love spure planet lend its guiding ray, Our tardy Art shall wear an angels wings, And life shall lengthen with the joy it brings! Holmes.
