    Defer not till to-morrow to be wise,
    To-morrow's Sun to thee may never rise;
    Or should to-morrow chance to cheer thy sight
    With her enlivening and unlook'd for light,
    How grateful will appear her dawning rays!
    As favours unexpected doubly please.

This day was yesterday to-morrow nam'd:
To-morrow shall be yesterday proclaimed:

What shall to-morrow then be call'd? To-day.

To-morrow's falser than the former day;
Lies worse; and while read more

Trust on and think To-morrow will repay;
To-morrow's falser than the former day;
Lies worse; and while it says, we shall be blest
With some new Joys, cuts off what we possest.

In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining,
May my lot no less fortunate be

In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining,
May my lot no less fortunate be
Than a snug elbow-chair can afford for reclining,
And a cot that o'erlooks the wide sea;
With an ambling pad-pony to pace o'er the lawn,
While I carol away idle sorrow,
And blithe as the lark that each day hails the dawn,
Look forward with hope for to-morrow.

Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have liv'd today.

There's a fount about to stream,
There's a light about to beam,
There's a warmth about to read more

There's a fount about to stream,
There's a light about to beam,
There's a warmth about to glow,
There's a flower about to blow;
There's a midnight blackness changing
Into gray;
Men of thought and men of action,
Clear the way.
