DUTY.
THE path of duty is so plain
That we may never seek in vain
To find its Heaven-directed course.
All true success derives its source
From honest purpose. In all we do
Let us to our best selves be true,
To duty true!
Although it be a lowly way
In which we labor day by day,
Though we possess not wealth nor fame,
We still may hold life's highest aim.
We will, in all we say or do,
Unto our better thoughts be true,
To best things true.
