Lyics

BROAD is the road that leads to death,

And thousands walk together there:

But wisdom shows a narrower path,

With here and there a traveller.



"Deny thyself, and take thy cross,"

Is the Redeemer's great command;

Nature must count her gold but dross,

If she would gain this heavenly land.
