SHORT SELECTIONS FOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADES...

191

And the largest rent is mended;
One brick upon another,

And the highest wall is made;
One flake upon another,

And the deepest snow is laid.

Then do not look disheartened
O'er the work you have to do,
And say that such a mighty task
You never can get through:
But just endeavor, day by day,
Another point to gain,

And soon the mountain which you feared
Will prove to be a plain.

III.

THE CLOUD.

AUTHOR NOT KNOWN.

WHAT are you doing, little white cloud, Up in the heavens, sailing so proud?

Helping my brothers here in the blue
Hide the hot sunshine, baby, from you.

Where are you going, flying so slow,
White cloud so lazy, I'd like to know?
