NEW POEMS CLXXIV

CLXXV

HO would think, herein to look,

That from these exiguous bounds,

I have dug a printed book

And a cheque for twenty pounds?

Thus do those who trust the Lord

Go rejoicing on their way

And receive a great reward

For having been so kind as lay.

Had the fun of the voyage

Had the sport of the boats
