MUCH TO DO.

"NOTHING to do?" O, pause and look around At those oppressed with want, and sorrow, too! Look at the wrongs, the sufferings that abound, Ere yet thou sayest there's naught for thee to do.

"Nothing to do?" Are there no hearts that ache, No care-worn breasts that heave an anguished sigh, No burdens that thy hands might lighter make, No bitter tears thy sympathy might dry?

"Nothing to do?" Ah, look without, within! Be to thyself and to thy duties true; Look on the world, its troubles, and its sin, And own that thou hast much indeed to do.
