94 POEMS AND SONGS Where would he live ? In some soft spot, Where all things can for all be got, Without or toil or trouble ! What sport were this, with nothing hard To do, no hindrance to retard, No risk to run, and one reward For all — a floating bubble ! Leave dreams to fools ! The name of Life Is work — a various-mingled strife Of Powers that slumber never ; The swelling seas, the circling spheres, The racing winds, the rolling years, The fateful tide of hopes and fears, Work bravely on for... ever. Work you with them, all work with God, His tools to stir the teeming sod, Or load the fruitful river ; And, if it chance His work we mar, With limping faith, or loveless war, His touch to music turns the jar. With strength that faileth never. pasteur's word to young men 95 Trench deep the soil ; cast broad the seeds, And branching trees o'er noxious weeds Will spread their fruitful measure. Put hand to plough, and persevere, When skies are dark, when skies are clear; For labour is the relish here That gives a zest to pleasure !
