Art toiling for some worldly aim, Devoting to that glitt'ring goal Ah! rest thee from the idle chase, Of fame or gold, what will be thine Possess thy wayward heart, Leaving alas! no part; That bind thy thoughtless brow, In a few short years from now? The good thou may'st on earth have done, Pardon to foe--alms unto need-- The treasures thus laid up in Heav'n These will alone remain to thee, TO THE SOLDIERS OF PIUS NINTH.
