“O, weary women with few hours of ease
Whose time is taken up with clubs and teas –
Waster not your hour! Learn wisdom in the fields
From birds and roses and the murmuring trees.

O, weary men, whose business let you find
Small leisure for the master of the mind
Waste not your hour! Pause now and then to dream
Let up a little on your steady grind.

Revive their calm, serene, untroubled ways.
Waste not your hour! The gods look pityingly down
While human hearts grow cold and faith decays.

Anna T. Nesbitt asked if any present took an
