Elizabeth Stabler a poem "What can I do".

[clipping]
For Friends' Intelligencer and Journal
WHAT CAN I DO?
What can I do, what can I do,
To help in the world as I go journeying through?
The great round world with its oceans and lands,
The world that is asking for care at our hands,
The old, old world, to each comer so new -
What can I do? What can I do?

What can I write, what shall I say
To aid the next traveler coming this way,
In the old, old path so many have gone
And left kindly tokens to help us along?
I wish to help others in just the same way;
So what shall I write? What shall I say??

Do with thy strength, do with thy might
The work that lies nearest 'twixt morning and night
The talents entrusted thee strive to increase,
Lest they rust in thy coffers and rob thee of peace.
The pathway of duty keep ever in sight,
Then work with thy strength, work with thy might.

Write what thou mayest - say what thou must -
A song for the weary, a prayer of trust,
Whatever good earnestly done in thy day
Must help the next traveler coming thy way.
To the thirsty a drop, to the starving a crust,
Give what thou mayest - leave it in trust.
L.W.W.
