Thim rankior tttlet a hundredfold. It n healthful body, a mind at eat, And simple pleaturet that alwaya pleat A heart that can feel for a neighbor wo. And share In his Joy with a friendly glow. With sympathies large enough to Infold All men at brother, It better than gold. Better than gold It the tweet repose Of the tons of toll when their labor clou. B;t'.r then gold U Ute poor man'a aleep. And the balm that drops In his slumbers deep; Better than gold It a thinking mind. That In rcalneit of thought and bookt can tnd A treasure turpamlng Australian ore. And live with-the grrat and good of yore. Bettrr than gold Is a peaceful home. Where all the flrealde charities come, The shrine of love, the haven of life, Hallowed by mother or tlster or wlfei However humble that borne may be. Or tried with torrowt by Heaven1! decree, j The blessings that never were bought or aold. I And center there, are better than gold. , Betterlhnn gold In affllctlon'a hour la the bain of lor. with IU toothing pow.rt1 Better than gold on a dying bed It the hand that pillows the sinking head. When the pride and glory f life decay. And earth and IU vanities fade away, The prostrate sufferer needs pot to be told That imit In Heaven It better than gold.
