    How many a rustic Milton has passed by,
    Stifling the speechless longings of his heart,
    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!

The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet,

The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet,
The best house hasn't been planned,
The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet,

Don't worry and fret, faint-hearted,
The chances have just begun
For the best jobs haven't been started,
The best work hasn't been done.

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!
