Persevere

By Anonymous

The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
Won’t have any fish to sell;
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
Won’t learn any lessons well.
If you would have your learning stay,
Be patient,—stick with it and hold fast:
The man who travels a mile each day,
May get ’round the world at last.
