    With hand on the spade and heart in the sky
    Dress the ground and till it;
    Turn in the little seed, brown and dry,
    Turn out the golden millet.
    Work, and your house shall be duly fed:
    Work, and rest shall be won;
    I hold that a man had better be dead
    Than alive when his work is done.

for a few years or months out of each life; it will not consume
nor degrade the whole life of anyone.
