1.Without haste!without rest!
Heed not flowers that round thee bloom;Bear it onward to the tomb.
2.Haste not!let no thoughtless deedPonder well and know the right,Onward then with all thy might;Haste not!years can ne‘er atone For one reckless action done.
3.Rest not!-life is sweeping by;Do and dare before you die;Something mighty and sublime Leave behind to conquer time-Glorious ’tis to live for ayeWhen these forms have passed away.
4.Haste not,rest not!calmly wait;Meekly bear the storms of fate;Duty be thy polar guide -Do the right,whate‘er betide !
Haste not,rest not!conflicts past,God shall crown thy work at last.
