WHAT A BOY CAN DO.

By Crusader

A boy can make the world more pure. By kindly word and deed; As blossoms call for nature’s light, So hearts love’s sunshine need.

A boy can make the world more pure By lips kept ever clean; Silence can influence shed as sure As speech—oft more doth mean.

A boy can make the world more true By an exalted aim; Let one a given end pursue. Others will seek the same.

Full simple things indeed, these three, Thus stated in my rhyme: Yet what, dear lad, could greater be— What grander, more sublime? —Crusader.
