In the Looking-Glass

By Priscilla Leonard

THIS world is like a looking-glass, And if you want to see People frown at you as you pass, And use you slightingly; If you want quarrels, snubs, and foes, Put on a fretful face— Scowl at the world—you'll find it shows The very same grimace.
The world is like a looking-glass, And if you wish to be On pleasant terms with all who pass, Smile on them pleasantly; Be helpful, generous, and true, And very soon you'll find Each face reflected back to you An image bright and kind.
— Priscilla Leonard, in the Churchman.
