    Is not born with him: there is always work,
    And tools to work withal, for those who will;
    And blessed are the horny hand of toil!

When Darby saw the setting sun
He swung his scythe, and home he run,
Sat down, drank off his quart and said,

"My work is done! Your constant tone,
But hapless woman ne'er can say
'My work is done' till judgment day."

In unremitting drudgery and care!
How many a vulgar Cato has compelled
His energies, no longer tameless then,
To mould a pin, or fabricate a nail!
