Excerpt from Learn and Teach, Vol. 1 of 2: A Poem in Two Parts Now of that wide world, and its strange condition, 't were well to consider, Ere we be sent upon some stranger mission, In a world still wider And yet how many a thankless recollection Springs up with but a moment's sarl reflection On seasons flown Of duties undone, Time's aptest hours neglected, His favours spurn'd, and e'en those gifts rejected, That were our own.
