That fell like sunshine where it went --
Then you may count that day well spent.So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,How many days have been idly spent;
How like an arrow the good intentWe do not grudge or repent.
Freely to freedom we gave
Pledges, till life should be spent.How many days have been idly spent;
How like an arrow the good intentI BADE, because the wick and oil are spent
And frozen are the channels of the blood,
My discontented heart to draw contentWhen used as talents lent;
Those talents only well employed
When in thy service spent.In lavish mood for motley garb is spent,
And nature for the while at folly plays,
Knowing the morrow brings a snowy Lent.Thou shedst no teare but what but what my moisture lent,
And if I sigh, it is thy breath is spent.His hand upon my shoulder leant;
His heart, like mine, was free from care,
His breath, with sportive toil, was spent;This he as volubly would vent
As if his stock would ne'er be spent:A fool there was and his goods he spent
Honor and faith and a sure intentBut sing and shine by sweet consent,
Till life's poor transient night is spent,So I return rebuked to my content,
And gain by ills thrice more than I have spent."'Tis a dead spot, where even the light lies spent
To darkness!" croaked the Thing.
"Not if you look aloft!" said I, intentHis little legs were wobbly, his strength was nearly spent,
And so he turned around again and here's the way he went-And for all this, nature is never spent;
There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West wentThus many a sad to-morrow came and went,
Till, all my stock of infant sorrow spent,But if, when all his art and time is spent,
He say 'twill ne'er be found ; yet be content ;To rule in India, forth a soldier went
On whose bright-fronted youth fierce war had spent
