Were fearful of themselves, and thought By magic was men ' s greatness wrought. They feared to try what they could do : Yet Fame hath crowned with her success The selfsame gifts that you possess. Then came a day when tliey Their first hold venture made, Scorning to cry for aid. They dared to stand to fight alone. Took up the gauntlet life had thrown, Charged full-front to the fray, Mastered their fear of self, and then Learned that our great men are but men. The great were young as you. Dreaming the very dreams you hold. Longing yet fearing to be bold, Doubting that they themselves possessed The strength and skill for every test, LTncertain of the truths they knew, Not sure that they could stand to fate With all the courage of the great. Oh, Youth, go forth and do! ' nu. t(Mi. to fame may rise; ou can be strong and wise. Stand up to life and play the man — You can if you ' ll but think you can ; The great were once as you. You envy them their proud success? ' Twas won with gifts that you possess. — lidgar A. Gi - W A little learning is a dangerous thins Page six
